This week we celebrate Earth Day, which is an excellent time to celebrate the creation God has blessed us with. While there are many ways we can learn about the beautiful things of our world, one of the best ways is taking a look at Scripture, for it is full of references and insights about our gorgeous planet.
Here are just some Scripture references worth highlighting: The two creation stories at the beginning of Genesis, the restoration of the Covenant with Noah in Genesis, prophecies from Isaiah from the book of Isaiah, the Gospel of Matthew where Jesus speaks of his care for the birds, plants, and us, the Fruits of the Holy Spirit in Galatians, and of course, the Second Coming when all Creation is transformed into Heaven as described in the book of Revelation.
So, as we continue this Easter season, let us reflect on such Scripture passages, and recognize and enjoy the beauty that Jesus has blessed us with.
