Reflection
What part of creation do you find most difficult to consider being your sister or brother? What would it take for you to change this emotional response?
Prayer
Lover of All Life, thank you for each part of creation. Release my mind and heart from a desire to think of myself as better than nonhumans. Keep teaching me how to open my mind and heart to all of life.
Scripture to Carry in Your Heart Today
“But ask the animals, and they will teach you; the birds of the air, and they will tell you; ask the plants of the earth, and they will teach you; and the fish of the sea will declare to you” (Job 12:7-8).
