Express Yourself!

When John the Apostle described his vision wherein he saw what heaven looked like, he wrote about seeing “the tree of life” and said that “the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.”

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all tree leaves could be used for the healing of nations? What would the earth’s landscape be like were it not for trees? Can you imagine?

No need to imagine. It would be like Saturn (pretty rings), Jupiter (a bunch of moons), Mars (if I want to see red dirt, I’ll go to Georgia!) or any of the other planets.

Tree sitting is when a protester sits in a tree, to protect it from being cut down. It is an act of civil disobedience that sometimes results in forcible removal of the protestor from the tree. 

Trees are of critical importance to our environment. The urgency of preserving, maintaining and cultivating trees can not be overstated or simplified.

All the trees on our planet are “trees of life” and they can all contribute to healing the world.

So I ask you: 

Is Tree Sitting Really Necessary?
