Thinking of mother earth as a living, sacred being, speaks more directly to me than pollution or over consumption. I want to ‘nurture’ her…. and my new grandson (Oh did I mention I am now a Nanna?!!). Just before Jesus ascended, he said ‘A new commandment I give to you, to love one another, as I have loved you.’

The Christian life is a simple one, to love God and to love one another, just as we are fully loved by God.
