God’s Gift of Earth

When God created the world and gave it to humankind,

He thought of their well-being, not the chaos that man would cause.

He devoted himself with great love to a full life for all.

The earth is a divine gift; without it, there is no life.

We need to change our destiny and transform reality.

We must know that we are responsible for life to continue.

Preserve what God created, reforest the place

Clean rivers and lakes, respect the ocean

Take care of animals and plants and preserve life.

Change our lifestyle, recycle and reuse

Use organic fertilizer and plant our vegetables

Change our agriculture and prevent diseases.

Demand from our authorities public policies to improve

The life of citizens and the place where they live

Have the courage to assume that politics is for working

To improve the lives of people and respect the planet.

This is the awareness that every human being should have

That we are not alone, we were made to live together

Respecting each one, because, no matter how small they may be

They have their usefulness, they have the right to live.

Laudato Si teaches us that it is possible to transform

Pope Francis shows us practices to use

The Encyclical is the path where Christians should find inspiration.
