It is stunning, Sigi. Cypress trees pale in comparison. Are the people trying recreate a piece of the rainforest having any success?
I hate the damage that mining and blasting do to mountains, and while there is something so hopeful about efforts to reclaim damaged areas, it's a hope that can't be separated from the anger at the loss. Is there that sort of feeling about it?
I suppose I should take a look to see if there's anything I can do regarding the brutal mishandling of the earth's resources.
That's my other favorite sort of hymn, aside from the hymns of praise. The hymns of service remind me of how much *better* I could do.
"For such a time as this"
Wayne Watson
Now, all I have is now
To be faithful
To be holy
And to shine
Lighting up the darkness
Right now, I really have no choice
But to voice the truth to the nations
A generation looking for God*Chorus*
For such a time as this
I was placed upon the earth
To hear the voice of God
And do His will
Whatever it is.
For such a time as this
For now and all the days He gives
I am here, I am here
And I am His
For such a time as this.You - Do you ever wonder why
Seems like the grass is always greener
Under everybody else's sky
But right here, right here for this time and place
You can live a mirror of His mercy
A forgiven image of grace
(Repeat Chorus)Can't change what's happened till now
But we can change what will be
By living in holiness
That the world will see Jesus(Repeat Chorus)
