STEWARDSHIP OF LIFE AND CREATION: "THOSE WHO TRULY BELIEVE THAT THE WORLD WAS  MADE  WILL NOT WANT TO UNMAKE IT, TO DESTROY AND DESECRATE THE WORK OF THE CREATOR MERELY TO SATISFY THEIR OWN DESIRES." ---- LIVING TODAY IN AWARENESS AND GRATITUDE.

"Your eyes are windows into your body. If you open your eyes wide in wonder and belief, your body fills up with light. If you live squinty-eyed in greed and distrust, your body is a dank cellar." --Matthew 6:22-23 (The Message)--greed always wants more. distrust can never have enough security protection. unconditional trust and belief in Divine Providence and Love liberates us to look with wonder and confidence as God unfolds blessings, even in times of trouble........and with a inner balance we can function as good stewards........

"BLESSED ARE THE MEEK, FOR THEY SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH." (Sermon on the Mt.) -- "You're blessed when you're content with who you are--no more, no less. That's the moment you find yourselves proud owners of everything that can't be bought." (The Message) --calmness, patience holds steadfast in the midst of the storm, able to manage wisely until the violence is spent....and sanity is restored....
