In our time, it is of great importance to overcome the limited relationship we have with nature and to return to the way of coexistence inaugurated by Christ with it, with its beauty, with the meaning it contains within. Considering it, we should not think exclusively of the benefit we might potentially gain from exploiting it nor the dangers with which it might threaten us. We can see that nature has been created not only to reveal perfect beauty but also so that, at a future time, once it has been freed from the yoke of sin imposed on it by man, it can become part of the Kingdom of God, when He will be "all in all" (1 Cor. 15:28). The Apostle Paul mentions somewhere that "the whole creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the children of God’s glory" (Rom. 8:19). All creation, all the earth, all the heavens, all creation longs for the day when man will return to God and will have the ability to lead all creation into the bosom of God. Then the theophany man, that is, a creation within which God lives and whose roots begin from God, will know how to restore all creation to the bosom of divine life, just as a shepherd leads his flock. And this is our calling.
