Gratitude for God's choice of man over animals

God's Choice

by nomi338

I do not wish to be a bird
I see them flying through the air
I do not wish to be a lion
Their loud roaring gives me a scare
I do not wish to be a fish
I don't even know how to swim
The God of love placed me above
Each and every one of them

The photo Animal Kingdom came from the Internet.
The inspiration from this poem comes from the NWT (2013) Bible book of Genesis chapter one, verse 28, which states:â?¯Further, God blessed them, and God said to them: â??Be fruitful and become many, fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving on the earth.â??
To me this is a clear choice of man over animals. Sadly we have not done that great a job of caring for them.
