Heavenly Father, it is so easy to forget that all life itself comes from You. Everything that moves and grows does so because You started it and You care for it. Most things You simply spoke into existence. Your words created those things. But, human beings are most important. You created mankind in a different way. You formed human beings with Your hands and You breathed life into this part of Your creation. Help me not be so concerned with my own life and my own comfort that I forget how important all life is to You. Your words are powerful and create beautiful things. Your handiwork in mankind is magnificent and should be treated with the most care and respect. Help me treat each living thing with the same dignity and honor You do.
