When you receive the Seal, God writes His Name in your forehead. When you carry His Name like this you belong to Him. And when you belong to Him you care about the rest of His creation too.

The Seal on your forehead is a little garden plot, a little slice of life of the earth. It is where you bear fruit. Either that or you are completely desolate and ravaged by stormy weather. You do not want that to happen to you. But it is happening on the rest of the earth.

Oxfam is a non-profit based in the UK working to end poverty and injustice. They have an uphill battle now with what they have found to be happening. They have made some measurements and found that natural disasters are on the rise.

And natural disasters are not just increasing a little. They are exploding! Weather events are becoming more frequent and at the same time more unpredictable and extreme.

In the early 1980s there were around 120 natural disasters per year in the world. Right now Oxfam says there are 500 happening every year. And who else has taken notice of this?

In the last 10 years the number of people affected by natural disasters has been 254 million per year. In the 10 years before that the numbers had been only 174 million people per year affected. That is a 70 percent increase.

In 1980 there were 60 major floods and wind-storms. In the year 2006 there were 240 floods and wind-storms and floods particularly are on the rise. And there has been no increase in volcanic eruptions to cause any changes in the atmosphere.

Sometimes these disasters are called acts of God. In this case they are probably not being caused by God. In this case they are probably being caused by humans. They are evidence of the effects of global warming happening now.

God does have a hand in it. He is making things a little more severe right now so people will wake up and take notice. This is what He did with hurricane Katrina and the others that followed.

Americans have been typically slow to notice and take any responsibility. But when you are sealed your Seal becomes a little garden. It is a little spiritual ecosystem where things grow up unto new life.

And you do not want to let anything threaten the balance of that garden. You avoid the storms and floods that beat against your house. That is one reason you built your ecopetrous house on the Rock.

Those storms and floods are happening right now in the world. There are many more today than just a few short years ago. And when any of these storms happens to you, they will certainly also affect your little garden.

You can take action today. You can start to conserve energy and resources. You can recycle. And you can support causes for protecting the environment. Think these disasters are not being caused by man?

Let me just tell you that you have two choices: man and God. If the effects of man on the ecosystem are not causing global warming and these weather disasters than they must be caused by God.

And if they are caused by God, then He is punishing you. But I am here to tell you that God is not punishing you. I know because you are reading this. You are seeking God, not shunning Him.

You are seeking God because He has sought you. He has led you here so you can learn more about the impact you are having on the earth. Just like you will learn to care for the earth when you receive the Seal.
