Reading - Genesis 1:11-13
Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the third day.
Reflection
Take a look outside and notice the plants and trees. Are they showing you it’s winter?
Prayer
Dear God, thank you for creating the plants that nourish us, providing clean air for us to breathe, giving us shade and shelter, and so much more. Amen.
