When we understand and fully comprehend that we were created in the image of God, we discover our true identity and worth.
So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Genesis 1:27
Think about that for a moment. The same God who created the universe wanted to make us in His likeness. Being made in the image of God means that we carry something special and divine within us.
It means we have value and dignity, and our worth does not come from our accomplishments, looks, or possessions. It comes from the very fact that we reflect the nature of God.
If we believe that each person is made in the image of God, then we must treat everyone with respect and honor, valuing the person next to us regardless of their background, appearance, or status.
God did not create us to be copies of each other. Each of us bears a distinct reflection of God, and He made us reflect His character in our lives.
We are called to love, show compassion, seek justice, and extend grace, just as He does.
As you go about your day, remember that you are made in the image of God. Shaping how you see yourself and others and inspiring you to live a life that reflects the goodness and love of God.
Take a moment and thank God for creating you in His image, ask Him to help you see yourself and others through His eyes, and let this awareness empower you to live boldly and purposefully, knowing that you are fearfully and wonderfully made by the Creator of the universe.
Heavenly Father, as I know You are the creator of the universe and the creator of each one of us, and we are designed to live as You have made us. We are made in the image of You, male and female. I thank You for this temple that can reflect You to others by who we are in You. You are my life, my portion, and my God and all I want to do is please You, my creator. Let my life shine as You live through me to a world so in need of You. Thank You, Father. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
You Are Made In The Image Of God. Shaping How You See Yourself And Others And Inspiring You To Live A Life That Reflects The Goodness And Love Of God.
