Tonight was a college night, and it was my turn on the rota to design and lead the opening worship alongside my friend Alison. We decided to build the 10 minute slot around today's LLLL task, focusing on our role as stewards of creation.
It can be overwhelming to think about the polar ice caps melting or areas of rainforest being sold off for oil drilling or development - and what's more there seems very little we can do to effect change in these huge environmental issues.
We can, however, bring about change in our local area and ask questions of ourselves. Where is creation in the places we live in being damaged and where is it being built up? Where do I stand on proposed local fracking sites? What needs to be preserved and what is necessary change?
Many small changes can bring about one big one, which is the whole ethos of Love Life Live Lent.
Genesis 2:15
The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to till it and keep it.
