Strength In Numbers

Lady bugsWhat strikes fear in your hearts—a roaring lion, a grizzly bear, Great White sharks, ladybugs? That’s right, the dreaded Harmonia axyridis! It reproduces quickly, it is a cannibal, it eats aphids, and, it eats other ladybugs. And it can destroy some plants. Normally that wouldn’t be a problem, but the Asian beetle is a real problem in England where they are used to control crop pests. How is that a problem? They make it hard for the homegrown native species to survive. It’s risky to have one species be dominant without competition to keep nature in harmonious balance.

What about the multitudes who think that they can worship God through nature? They don’t think it’s necessary to attend church, because they feel that they can be “at one” with God on the lake on the weekends. They are comfortable “communing” with God spread out in a campsite, or hunting deer in a tree-stand, or down on the farm restoring that old Camero or Firebird they covet in the garage sanctuary. Strength In Numbers Is the homegrown species decline affecting the hormonal balance? What does God think about this?

“Let us not give up meeting together,
as some are in the habit of doing,but let us encourage one another:
and all the more as you see the day approaching Hebrews 10:25
