TOPIC

Brent Siemens spoke about how the dominion over other creatures that humans have been delegated from God must reflect the care that the Almighty has, such as how he provides streams for the wild animals and grass for the cattle (Psalm 104). Deut. 22:6-7 entreats us to spare the mother hen when you harvest her young birds or eggs. In Genesis 9 after the flood, God made a covenant symbolized by the rainbow -- not only with Noah and his family, but also with every living creature on Earth. Keep in mind that "the righteous know the needs of their animals" (Proverbs 12:10). [KH]
