My Image or God's?

 

January 16

 

Genesis says God created man in His image. My wife asks, “Do we see God in our image rather than seeing ourselves in His image?"

 

  I'm sure my perspective is seeing God in my image. That means God has feelings, emotions, thoughts and memories. OK so far. However, holding God in my image would also mean God has limits. That's not good. That is not God.

 

So how do we see ourselves created in His image?  It begins with belief! God created us in His image. 

 

 Isaiah. knew in whose image he was created.

 "Those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength;

They shall mount up with wings like eagles

They shall run and not be weary,

They shall walk and not faint."

(Isaiah 40:31)
