I thought I'd remind everyone that today is Earth Day - a meaningful day because it was this day in 2001 that Yahweh unfurled His 'Eden Wing' over the Sahara as a symbol of Yahweh's Garden to Brent and to the rest of the world - afterwards, the Sahara was flooded. It is a day that should remind folk that this planet is deep in exile, and probably will be for a long time - but hopefully not for more thousands of years. This is a planet without the compassion of God; a planet full of oppression, pain, and death; a planet lacking the strength and technology of the Maker of life throughout this universe. People want religion, and not God; they want wealth, and not justice; they want power, and not peace; they want pride, and not equality; they want competition, and not cooperation; they want oppression, and not freedom; they want ten thousand fables, and not a single truth - so it is what Yahweh permits them... At least for a little while, because those same people fade away with the other animals, and the Earth does belong to Yahweh.
"I will stand on my guard post and station myself on the rampart; and I will keep watch to see what He will speak to me, and how I may reply when I am corrected... Is it not indeed from Yahweh of hosts that peoples toil for fire, and nations grow weary for nothing? For the Earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of Yahweh, as the waters cover the sea." ~ Habakkuk 2:1 & 13 - 14
