Will My Dog Go To Heaven?

What Happens to the Animals Around Us? Let’s first address why this question would even be asked. It gets asked because of teachings over the years from a place of no understanding. Preachers have taken verses that speak of humans being a living soul, and verses that speak of our dominion of the Earth. AlongContinue reading “Will My Dog Go To Heaven?”

Our Diet According To The Bible

God created us to eat certain things. I have seen tons of posts online arguing about whether we should be carnivores or herbivores. Whether we should be vegan or paleo. And this is good, because what we consume is actually able to heal us or kill us. So, it’s important to try to get itContinue reading “Our Diet According To The Bible”

Peaceful Moment At Sea

A photo haiku A moment of peace,where the living sea meets me,and we become one. A photo I took on Jekyll Island, Georgia. It’s looking to the west, just before the sunset. The Georgia coast can be seen in the distance, and a ship cruises by. The Golden Isles of Georgia, and the entire coastContinue reading “Peaceful Moment At Sea”

Winter is Gone

A springtime poem The long cold winter is gone.Blood of trees begin to flow.Birds singing a mating song.New plants begin to grow. Wonderful warmth in the air,with raging storms to begin.All the animals are a pair,Life’s cycle begins again. Lakes and ponds warming in the sun.Fish jumping, with splashes fall.In flight, the dragonflies hum.Spring PeepersContinue reading “Winter is Gone”

Created To Protect

Created to protect, this world.From the soil of the Earth, now turned.Mankind formed to love. But, this fallen world full of greed,rapes the land and pollutes the sea.Through love of money. Our animal friends living with us,run and hide, while we come to crush,everything they love. A perfect world; now fallen to filth.A lost paradiseContinue reading “Created To Protect”

Pere Marquette State Park

A Villanelle Poem Overlooking the Illinois river,misty morning sun waking up in a smile;on a ridge with beauty forever. Watching the powerful waters devour,miles and miles of golden land while,overlooking the Illinois river. Oak trees of mighty strength standing tall,with shag bark hickory beside in noble file;on a ridge with beauty forever. Frog, turtle and Continue reading “Pere Marquette State Park”

Why Do Christians Hate The Environment?

What’s the deal? I’ve often wondered why Christians seem to reject Environmentalism, and even have disdain for the creation itself. Personally I read the Bible and it plainly teaches that humans were created to take care of and protect the creation. To Replenish what we use. To have dominion and subdue it with love andContinue reading “Why Do Christians Hate The Environment?”

Summer In A Vase

Kimo Ode to Van Gogh’s Sunflowers Summer in a vase, the sunflowers stand.Golden petals bring a smile.A reflection of life. Warm sunny days captured in memory;held aloft by towers green.Blazing heads bowed in prayer. Creating its own light, of youthful joy.Subtle burning energyof our eternal soul. Long lost memory of a home to dwell.A placeContinue reading “Summer In A Vase”
