The Passion of the Earth is a painting by Br. Michael Moran, CP, of St. Paul of the Cross Province. He created it during the time he was living at the Passionist retreat house in Riverdale, NY, and had the opportunity to spend time in dialogue with Fr. Thomas Berry, CP.
Those conversations, in part, inspired the creation of this powerful work.
Michael invites us to interact with the painting as with any work of art, to let it speak to us, to reach us at our depths, and to bring who and where we are to the painting as much as we bring the painting to whom and where we are.
May this powerful work of art inspire in us a new consciousness, a new creativity, and a new energy to know we are as integral to Earth as Earth is to us.
We are one.
May we see and experience the Divine Presence in all Creation, and may our renewal bring Earth healing and peace.
How does the painting The Passion of the Earth raise your consciousness about the sufferings of Earth?
What does this new awareness call you to do?
