No Longer Enough


No Longer Enough

Elizabeth Canham


It is no longer enough to discuss ecology across the coffee table or to theorize about how much time we have before water supplies become so polluted or the ozone layer so reduced that human life is threatened. Now is the moment for commitment, for staking life on making God's presence known in rock, ocean and forest. Now is the time to resist relentlessly every act of violence against creation.

Some of us will be drawn to public and prophetic action that calls attention in dramatic ways to the devastating future we face if we refuse to change. Others will be drawn to less noticeable forms of action. Our prayer needs to be one of discernment: How does God want me to act, choose, pray in this moment so that my way of life enhances the goodness of creation?
