- Scripture: Psalm 104:24 – “How many are your works, LORD! In wisdom you made them all; the earth is full of your creatures.”
- Reflection: Diversity and complexity are part of God’s design. We know, as we consider such mathematical occurrences as fractals, which are repeating patterns at multiple scales, that earth is a masterpiece. Our world is filled with a variety of interconnected life forms, each created with purpose and care.
How do you fit into the pattern? With whom and what are you interconnected? With whom, and with what, are you in relationship? What balances out your sense of purpose? - Spiritual Practice Prompt: What aspect of the natural world offers the greatest contrast with your identity and being today? What caused you to notice the distinction?

Biodiversity refers to the variety of living species on Earth, including plants, animals, bacteria and fungi. While Earth’s biodiversity is so rich that many species have yet to be discovered, many species are being threatened with extinction due to human activities, putting the Earth’s magnificent biodiversity at risk. — National Geographic
