CENTRAL MAINE • April 28, 2024
In the beginning was God, and God was love. People discovered cheap sources of energy, fossil fuels enabled them to amass great wealth. Others became rich through manufacturing and dumping waste products into the water and air. This damaged God’s creation. Love decided that people needed understanding to balance their greed. Those who saw the need for love and conserving God’s planet were charged with teaching this message. And they were resisted mightily at those who sought to hoard wealth. And so Love has given us the gift of purpose; a challenge to make ourselves worthy companions and stewards for the earth and our children. ~ Richard Thomas, Waterville
