(Orange Hawkweed (Hieracium aurantiacum or Pilosella aurantiaca) - 02) This is another view of the terminal cluster of flowers on the long stem of the orange hawkweed. Cattle would not eat the orange hawkweed growing in their pastures because of the hairy nature of this wild flower, thus farmers called it the devil's paintbrush, because it ruined good pasture land. We can also look at this flower in another way; if we ate only a plant food diet, as God originally intended, then we could enjoy both the beautiful animals and wildflowers living together in the fields.

lamb-right lamb-left Presented here are just a few of the countless components of God's creation.  Just as we cannot have human and animal life without water and plants, neither can we have lasting peace without love and compassion.  It is our hope and prayer that this series will motivate people to live and act in a cruelty-free manner; that we would no longer hurt or destroy each other, the animals or our environment.
