Climate Change in Perspective

 Generations come and generations go,
but the earth remains forever.
The sun rises and the sun sets,
and hurries back to where it rises.
The wind blows to the south
and turns to the north;
round and round it goes,
ever returning on its course.
All streams flow into the sea,
yet the sea is never full.
To the place the streams come from,
there they return again. ~ Ecclesiastes 1:4-7 NIV

Has the time come for a rewrite?
The earth remains, forever?
Ice ages, sun spots,
cyclical anomilies,
The Teacher’s wisdom
epochs and eons before his time.
They say “some things never change.”
They say we’re a half degree warmer
than our greatgrands.
Isaiah chimed in “The arrogance of man will be brought low
and the pride of men humbled;
the LORD alone will be exalted in that day.”
Stewards we must be.
Responsibility?
Not ours. Thank God.

Thanks, God.
