February 12, 2025 Reflection – Give glory to God the Creator in the colors of nature!
Give glory to God the Creator in the colors of nature! February 12, 2025 Dear Family of Mary! Today for Holy Mass, we again read from Genisis about our creation! The narrative zooms down, presenting how God made man from the clay of the ground… God makes all the trees and plants for man’s sustainance and warns him not to eat of a certain tree. How present and loving God is to Adam and Eve. How generous and also wise He is. Let’s prayerfully read this account: Genesis 2:4b-9, 15-17 At the time when the Lord God made the earth and the heavens—while as yet there was no field shrub on earth and no grass of the field had sprouted, for the Lord God had sent no rain upon the earth and there was no man to till the soil, but a stream was welling up out of the earth and was watering all the surface of the ground—the Lord God formed man out of the clay of the ground and blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and so man became a living being. Then the Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and he placed there the man whom he had formed. Out of the ground the Lord God made various trees grow that were delightful to look at and good for food, with the tree of life in the middle of the garden and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. The Lord God then took the man and settled him in the garden of Eden, to cultivate and care for it. The Lord God gave man this order: “You are free to eat from any of the trees of the garden except the tree of knowledge of good and evil. From that tree you shall not eat; the moment you eat from it you are surely doomed to die.” We know the outcome of this situation, and it is painful. But we also know that God did not give up on Adam and Eve and He will not give up on us. This message from Our Lady reflects the love of God for us, and calls us to relate to Him as the loving Father He is!! August 25, 1999 “Dear children! Also today I call you to give glory to God the Creator in the colors of nature. He speaks to you also through the smallest flower about His beauty and the depth of love with which He has created you. Little children, may prayer flow from your hearts like fresh water from a spring. May the wheat fields speak to you about the mercy of God towards every creature. That is why, renew prayer of thanksgiving for everything He gives you. Thank you for having responded to my call.” May we follow Our Lady’s advice. Give glory to God!! Give thanks to Him for all He has done for us!! Let prayer flow from our hearts like fresh water from a spring!! We are so loved by God!!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
