There was once a sage with the heart of God, who spoke to people across boundaries of religion and culture – his name was Christ. Jesus said that “I am the way, the truth, and the life,” and also that, “I am able to do nothing of myself.” How do we reconcile these statements from Christ? Those that in one way equate him to God, in unity with Divinity known by many names, and others that denote his subservience to the Father and how “of himself” he can achieve nothing at all? We hear this seeming contradiction in his sayings about us as well, equating us to the light of God and children of God but also saying that we must give up ourselves to find unity with God. Perhaps we can equate this a little with our relationship with the earth as well. How in one way the earth is made for life and beauty but given the selfish and destructive practices we employ today, in order for us to discover the fullness of this we have to clear away our tendency for over production and waste, for non-agricultural practices and harm, for brutality of the earth’s animals and our fellow people.
