Organic Christian Living

From Faith Barista:

Organic Christian Living

1. Pesticide-free. Do not consume or release harmful, judgmental opinions from others or self.

2. Highly Sustainable. Focus on sustaining a relationship with God apart from productivity, performance or results. That quality of faith will be strong and overflow in sustaining all other relationships.

3. Natural Growth. Chew on the Word, be transparent with others and water with prayer. Natural growth takes time, during the sowing and winter seasons. Fruit will show up when the time is right.

4. Higher Cost. Hang back with Christ even if it costs more in time and faith. Even though no one can see what is happening, the trials and joys experienced by faith produce less waste and require less stress and energy.

5. Richer Soil. God isn’t focused on the numbers. His aim is to draw us to His love and His heart. [ One study found organic farming gave 20% smaller yield using less synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. But, the soil had higher quality and higher water retention. ]

6. Good For The Environment. Others are blessed, not stressed when they are around you.
