WOW! exactly what I needed to hear, thank you so much!
It is especially interesting how the "dominion over the [animals] of the earth" was included in the first verse, as I returned to work today from a successful whitetail deer hunt.
Many of the people I work with are vegetarians, and very few (if any) harvest their own meat, so of course in addition to the traditional deer/gun pose, I have an action photo of BIL and me skinning and butchering the deer.
LG, your post helped bring a focus to the perspective I had gained from three days of hunting.
It is all in GOD's plan. It is my job to be patient and loving, regardless of W's actions.
If I'm unhappy with things W does, we need to work together to agree on alternative actions. I need to approach these sitchs without offering advice, without "having the answer", and without accusing W.
