This will make it much easier for them when putting the service together. Many thanks.\nGILLIAN’S MONTHLY MUSING\nI recently watched the award-winning documentary by Sir David Attenborough “A Life on this Planet”. I had resisted what I thought would be a doom and gloom experience ever since it had been released. Having just talked about climate change on Sea Sunday, I finally was in a suitable frame of mind to sit through it. Yes, it clearly showed the willful, selfish, and stunningly ignorant behaviour carried out by humans which has definitely contributed to the current fragile state of our planet, but it also presented easy opportunities for slowing down, (and possibly even halting) this march towards our own destruction we seem to be taking. \u000bI don’t want to see the legacy we leave our children and grandchildren to be one like the Israelites were given, after their hopelessly disobedient behaviour towards the God who had cared for them, rescued them from slavery, provided enough food to sustain them without any waste left over, and kept them safe. God effectively washed his hands of them, leaving them with the consequences of their behaviour for forty years. Moses and all the other prophets had constantly warned them, but their words were ignored or rubbished.\u000bAre we repeating that behaviour in the way we carelessly treat our natural environment, promising to do better, but sliding back into our bad habits when being better is inconvenient? I want to believe God cares enough about the creation of our Universe not to allow it to be destroyed, but how bad will it get before we really listen to our modern-day prophets in the forms of scientists, and finally start acting like God always hoped we would. \u000bI offered up a challenge on Sea Sunday, to choose one thing that each of us could truly make an effort to carry out – all the time – not just when it is convenient, but especially when it is inconvenient. I have a reputation for not turning out lights in rooms not being used. That’s the challenge I have given myself – ALWAYS remember to turn out the unused lights! It’s still a work in progress, but is helping reduce electrical use, and ultimately natural resource use and positively impacting on environmental health and well being.\nGen. 1:26 “Let us make humankind in our own image, … and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air and over the cattle, and over all the wild animals of the earth, and over every creeping thing that moves upon the earth”.\nI’m pretty sure ‘dominion’ does not mean careless destruction and death.\u000bManaakitanga,  \u000bGillian\n**********************************************\nLAUGHTER Really IS THE BEST  MEDICINE !!!!\nA man is angry because he has it in his head that someone stole his wallet. He walks into a church to steal someone else's wallet, but he has a change of heart during the service. He confesses to the priest afterwards about what his intentions had initially been. The priest asks, \"What made you change your mind?\" The man says, \"In your sermon on the Ten Commandments when you got to 'Thou shall not commit adultery,' I remembered where I left my wallet!\"\nMemorable THOUGHTS ON LIFE\nHe who has the most toys, wins – Frank Sinatra\nHe who dies with the most toys, still dies – Anon\nLife is like riding a bicycle.
