Our hearts need to be recycled too.
"Mommy, what's that big orange container?" My curious 5-year-old asked as she peered out the front window. "That's our recycling bin," I said. "We clean out cans and bottles that can be recycled and place them in the bin." "Is the bin for that big orange truck?" she asked. "That's right! They take the stuff in the bin to the recycling plant where they turn it into more cans and bottles. It helps keep stuff from going in the trash where it's never used again."
I've always strived to teach my children about being a good steward of the earth God gave us. In Genesis, God told Adam he's in charge. And Genesis 1:26 not only says we are made in God's image but that we're given the charge to care for all the earth and everything in it.
