"And God saw all that He had made, and behold, it was very good.
And there was evening and there was morning, the sixth day" (Genesis 1:31)
(Saxifrage, Early - 09) The undersides of the early saxifrage are often
purplish in color. A tint of purple can be seen in some of the leaves. This
plant looks unusual because of what appears to be flower buds growing from the
base of the flower stalk, but it is really the beginning growth of another
flower stalk. The downward facing hairs on the stalk are glandular and secrete
a sticky substance to entrap insects that try to climb up the stalk to take the
nectar; thus, leaving the nectar for the flying insects.

Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation. Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion. It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
