One Sunday evening after church I was watching the show “Little Big Shots” which highlights the talents & accomplishments of children. They brought a little boy looking to be no older than 5 on the show for having cried at the thought of people cutting down trees. He was a very cute little boy & I think it was nice that he was concerned about the environment.
However, & maybe it’s just me, I saw some overzealous tree huggers behind it all. I thought it might have been nice for someone to explain to him that trees are a renewable resource. When properly managed a forest can provide lumber for building many helpful things, fuel to keep people warm, and remain a vital wooded area.
Not to mention that a few well harvested trees can prevent fires from getting out of control thus saving many trees & possibly human lives. How we lead our children is very important. Are you following Jesus so that those following you will learn to do so also?
