2010/03/09 Day 18 of Lent 大齋期第18日

Thank God for His love 感謝神的厚愛

Day 18 of Lent   9 March 2010 (Tuesday)

Scripture Meditation> Revelation 21:1-5 and 21:22–22:7
1. In this description of the new heaven and the new earth, what is similar to the description of the Garden of Eden, and what is different?
2. Do you see any similarities between what humans will do in this picture of the new earth and what Genesis 1:26-28 says human beings were created to do?

Carbon Fast
> Thanksgiving
Thank God for His love. From the beginning of the earth to the new heaven and the new earth, He wills His people to serve Him and His land.

> ‘Say “No”’
Plastic bags take a hundred years to be degraded. Please say ‘No’ to free plastic bags provided by shops from now on, reduce the demand for plastic bags and relieve the earth from filling up with non-degradable waste.

大齋期第18日 2010年3月9日(星期二)

默想經文>啟示錄廿一章1至5節、廿一章22節至廿二章7節
1. 這兩段經文對新天新地的形容,與伊甸園有何異同之處?
2. 人在樂園裡所做的與創世記一章26至28節裡人受造的使命有何相似之處?

「堅決說『不』」
一般膠袋須花一百年時間才可分解。建議你今後購物時,不要使用商店提供的膠袋,減少膠袋需求,紓緩地球不斷囤積不可分解垃圾的情況。
