Nothing happens in this world without God’s input. This means that Climate Change and Global Warming are a part of our lives to teach mankind a lesson. I am not God, so I cannot tell you with certainty what the lesson is, but my feeling is that God is letting us know that we are not the “owners” of this beautiful world that we live in. Rather, it belongs to God and it is our obligation to remember at all times that we are inhabiting God’s world.
It is not our world to do with as we want. It is not our world to destroy the delicate but exquisite ecosystems due to our crass commercialism. It is not our world to cause famine and drought through our own fickle irresponsibility. And it is not our world to destroy over and over again with hatred and with nuclear bombs.
So, yes, I feel that God is disturbing our comfort to teach us that the world is not ours. Rather, it has been given to us as an inheritance to pass over to the next generations in better shape than how we received it.
