Her children arise up, and call her blessed...Proverbs31:28
Jan. 24, 2006
HOW MUCH DO WE REALLY LOVE OUR CHILDREN??
 Do we love them enough to train them in the way of the LORD ?? To teach them right from wrong ?? Good from evil ?? Courtesy, good manners ??

Well what about teaching them to recycle ?? I know you may be thinking that is silly, but is it ? The way the world is populating, growing with exceding numbers, houses being built everywhere, our land space is slowly dwindling down to no wooded area at all.

Now with that and the way people are so wasteful, when our children and there children grow up {if the LORD tarries} there will be NO land available for them. There are landfills everywhere filling up, too. All because people do not recycle. I have been recycling for about 6 years now, and if you could see ALL that I have NOT thrown away, but recycled, it would blow your mind. Becuase most people do not recycle ,either because they do not care or they think that it really doesn't matter. But  IT DOES !!!

If by recycling we can reuse things over and over, why not do it ?? Life is short and our land space is getting even shorter, let's show our children how much we really do LOVE them and show them how we recycle and TEACH them how to help reuse and not waste what GOD has given us or the knowledge for us to invent.

Now on that note, do you know there are a few things that never or take a severely long time to biodegrade. Cigarette butts take I believe it is 7 years to biodegrade {that's one good reason {among many others!!} NOT to smoke, Styrofoam is ONE of the worst, they can not biodegrade or reuse it, so I by as little as possible. Now Diapers....They also NEVER biodegrade, the filling in them and the outside stays around forever, you cannot even burn the things. Which is why I have switch back to cloth, I have evn started sewing together my own. They are absorbent and quite pretty looking, even more so than disposable. I'm making them in a variety of colors and designs. When I develop my film I will put them on my blog to show you.

PLEASE, let's all think about this precious world GOD has given us to borrow and let's help preserve it.

my husband has been doing a lot of research lately about what the Bible says about how we are to take care of His earth. recycling is just one of the MANY ways we can care for the earth. it is so hard to find CHRISTIAN information about caring for the earth though because everything is so new-agish. let me know if you find any good resources. =^)
