"God created man in His own image, in the
image of God He created him; male and female He created them.” Genesis 1: 26 - 27
The Bible proclaims that human beings are made in God’s image
and likeness. God’s presence in the Bible is that of eternal love. And
this God of love is a sublime artist who creates the world in love as a
masterpiece of beauty and nobility. In creating man and woman in his
image and likeness, he invites them to an intimate personal relationship with
himself and offers them the incredible privilege of being co-creators with him. We are each invited to have an individual and
personal relationship with God. This
relationship grows throughout our life time and we are called to share that
relationship with all those we encounter.
What an awesome reality to be made in the image and likeness of
God! May this reality continue to give
each one of us great hope and the certitude that we are indeed loved by God for
who we are.
