Genesis 2:7-15 (NIV)__________________________________________________________
7 the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
8 Now the LORD God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed. 9 And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
10 A river watering the garden flowed from Eden; from there it was separated into four headwaters. 11 The name of the first is the Pishon; it winds through the entire land of Havilah, where there is gold. 12 (The gold of that land is good; aromatic resin and onyx are also there.) 13 The name of the second river is the Gihon; it winds through the entire land of Cush. 14 The name of the third river is the Tigris; it runs along the east side of Asshur. And the fourth river is the Euphrates.
15 The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.
Father I'm glad that You've instilled in me the good habit of saving resources ever since I was a young boy. I knew the importance of saving the resources, and as global warming continues to cause the rise of temperature every year, it seems all the more prudent to act now.
Lord I pray for wisdom for all people, that they'll realise the importance of saving resources for future generations, that we can indeed be good stewards in managing this earth that You've created so beautifully for us.
