Water

I saw water from the temple.
Ezekiel 47: 1-9, 12

We sometimes think that the concern fro the environment is a new concern. But here is what Archbishop Oscar Romero said in his March 11, 1979, homily.

You know that the air and water are being polluted, as is everything we touch and live with, and we go on corrupting the nature that we need. We don’t realize we have a commitment to God to take care of nature. To cut down a tree, to waste water when there is so much lack of it, to let buses poison our atmosphere with those noxious fumes from their exhausts, to burn rubbish haphazardly – all that concerns our alliance with God.
