Everything is Holy- Erika Sikon

Edwards believes the beauty of holiness complements the holiness of natural beauty. I agree with him on this. Usually what is natural is beautiful and if God made everything, then everything that is natural is holy. Also we have learned how nature is a sacred place throughout the class. Nature is a holy thing created for us by our creator. It really matters if you believe that nature was made for us or we were meant to coexist with nature. How many people cannot say that the ocean, sky, trees, flowers etc. are not beautiful? Nature is beautiful. We use nature to symbolize holy things. The cross was made out of wood. We hang flowers I the cross at Easter. We set up Christmas trees. The palm leaves were laid in the street for Jesus, so now we lay them in our churches to symbolize the past. We put flowers at weddings and funerals. Everything is made out of nature in some way, shape, or form.
