Gen 1:27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created
them; male and female he created them.(NIV)
We have the clear imprint of God on us. The fact
that God created us with this element which seems to be missing from the rest
of creation is both the greatest honour and a huge responsibility. We are
created with the purpose of reflecting God’s nature, of imitating his character,
in short, God made us to be like Him. This was his intention from the beginning,
that we should behave in a God like way. Which aspects shall we try to emulate?
His creativity? His justice? His compassion? His holiness? His righteous anger?
His forgiveness? From the beginning God
has shown his loving concern for all he has made, should we not also care?
Father, which part
of your being do you want me to develop in my life?
