Earth


“The earth is what we all have in common.”

“The care of the Earth is our most ancient and most worthy, 
and after all our most pleasing responsibility. 
To cherish what remains of it and to foster its renewal 
is our only hope.”

Oh, my God! I love these Theme Thursdays. The whole day suddenly looks like a gigantic cyber-mural on account of the myriad contributions. I'm just blog-hopping at the moment and other sites have the same theme and yours is truly unique. Many thanks.

Greetings from London.

A terrific representation of the Earth, even if my country's left off!

It's not my intent to preach but the Bible has charged us from the beginning to be good stewards of our earth and be loving and kind to the animals we care for. To do less is an enormous dishonor to God. To think it isn't, is warped.
