This is a new icon, commissioned by www.panorthodoxconcernforanimals.org. Two of its themes is that we ought to treat animals with love and respect as creations of God, and that Christ has come to redeem not only the human race, but all creation, so marred by our human sin, including against animals, all too often cruelly treated by us humans.#icons#cruelty to animals#creation redeemed by Christ #Saint Isaac #John of Damascus
