Environmental Stewardship Commission (MEESC)

Romans 12:1-8

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God
(vs 6)

Reflection on Romans 12: 1-8
by the Rev Wanda Copeland

I never how realized how difficult it is to be separate from the mainstream until the last two years under our current President. It seems people everywhere are clamoring for less government oversight and guidance on environmental policy. Let corporations take the lead as they know the best. Market forces will drive out the dangerous ones. Less taxes means more discretionary money so that individuals can do ‘the right thing’. Unfortunately, our history proves again and again that we do not all have the courage of character and social responsibility to care for the common good.

We must take our understanding of God’s call to be stewards as our transformation that will inevitably take us out of touch with political and social leaders. We have to steel ourselves to be standing against the current of popular opinion. God does transform our hearts, and perhaps through our determination and commitment, God can transform this time and nation.
