54 Eggs and Ashes
Get me
You never will
Or make me want to care
Or share
Your eco-attitudes
Until I feel
You care for me.
John Polhill
Reusing
Jesus our Saviour,
take our rubbish,
the greed indulged,
the broken promises,
anger, resentments.
Take the long list of sin
that warps our being,
and weave your forgiving love
that makes of waste
a growing place.
Chris Polhill
The rich young ruler
A rich man asked Jesus: ‘Good Teacher, what must I do to save the world?’
‘Why do you call me good?’ Jesus asked him. ‘No one is good except God alone.
You know what the sustainability manual says: Do not waste water or energy, shop
thoughtfully and use the recycling facilities.’
