Stand on your authority

Sometimes people look at the crime, disease, famine and poverty in the world and they question and blame God. I guess that's easier than rolling up your sleeves and becoming a part of the solution,  but it's based on misinformation. You see, when God created the earth  He put everything we needed in it before He put us in it. It's like when parents put a crib up and fill it with comfortable things before they put the baby in it.
    Next, he gave us dominion and authority over everything in our world - Genesis. We were then responsible for it. When we as parents, give our children pets or toys, we give them that same responsibility and we say responsibility is good for them. 
     Well, we humans are responsible for helping and maintaining our environment.  God gave us the responsibility.  We can speak out, help out, pay out, (with donations), work out, (roll up your sleeves) and put the Word out.  We've got to clean up our own playground, maintain our homes, train up our children, stop accepting inappropriate behavior, and stop blaming God for not doing our job. God IS good.  He's NOT a dictator.  He took his hands off, gave us access to his power, and helps when we ask for it. Let's start doing our part. Pray, donate, roll up our sleeves. MAKE A DIFFERENCE.  I know we can.
