By Margaret Lawson Prayer for animals May I once again draw the attention of your readers to the "World
Day" which falls this year on Sunday, October 3rd or the nearest
convenient Sunday. Our attitude to, and treatment of the animals committed to our care
is one of paramount importance. Indeed this may well be one of the
fundamental spiritual issues which confronts the Church today, Christian
love can no longer be confined to our own species but must go out to
embrace all God's creation. It is therefore our duty to enquire into all the cruelties inflicted
on animals in the name of food, medicine, clothes, progress and
entertainment, and to abstain from the end-products of cruelty and
exploitation. In so doing we can rest assured of better health, and
peace and joy in the knowledge that we are making a positive
contribution to that vision of Isaiah: "They shall not hurt nor destroy
in all my holy mountain," saith the Lord. Life and Work magazine Return to Margaret Lawson: Letters |
