It’s not just we humans who are made to praise. In God’s great Universe it’s never just about us. Truth is that all Creation is made for praise. From the heavens with their angels, the sun, moon and shining stars, to all the creatures of land, sea and sky, and people of all classes and all ages. Praising the Creator: this is the common task of all Creation, the vocation of every living being together. If our empires are set on a way which squeezes the earth until it expires, our faith is in one whose Spirit restores breath to dying lungs - and with whose help we may hear the forests sing again.
