These reflections are a result of more than 40 years of ministry as a Roman Catholic priest. Most of these years I spent in the Diocese of Charlotte which covers Western North Carolina. Now I am retired, and live in Medellín, Colombia where I continue to serve as a priest in the Archdiocese of Medellín.
God looked at everything he had made, and he found it very good.
(Gen 1:20-2:4a)
As God finishes the work of creation, God finds everything not just good, but “very good.” It’s understandable that church folks want to focus on “original sin,” but we should never forget the “original blessing.” And as God “rests” on the seventh day, we too are called to rest and appreciate the creation.
