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)

(Growing an Avocado from Seed - 01) We scoop the seed out of the avocado half and wash it off.  Then we plant it in a flower pot with potting soil with the pointed end of the seed sticking up about 1/3 of the way above the soil, or we plant it in our indoor planter as you see here in this photo.  Keep the soil moist until the seed begins to split and sprout, which takes about two weeks.  Then keep the soil moist as you do to keep any plant healthy.

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.
