A Theology That Values Ecology
🌍 Reflecting on Faith and Earth 🙏✨
Today's devotional from Pastor Scott calls us to reflect on the connection between Christian theology and environmental responsibility. The Book of Revelation envisions a new heaven and earth; a return to Eden. What if our convictions of faith and ecology inspired a greater desire for a cleaner world?
In prayer, seek wisdom to honor God and creation and express gratitude for the divine uniqueness of our earthly home. 🌱🌟 #FaithAndEcology #Stewardship #CreationCare
Control and Surrender
🌟 Embracing Surrender and Limiting Control 🌟
Discovering Epictetus' wisdom has enriched my journey. Although not aligned with Christianity, his teachings resonate. "Control or surrender," he said. As Christians, surrendering what we can't control fosters resilience. Thomas Oppong advises, "Focus on your circle of influence."
Surrender to our Triune God expands our influence. Stoicism aligns with faith—acknowledge limits, surrender to God. Let's offer control to God; surrender becomes our chief task, a divine gift. 🙏✨ #Stoicism #FaithJourney #SurrenderToGod
