REFLECTING GOD'S IMAGE AND GLORY

“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
Main Text: Main text: Ephesians 4:24

Every individual is a masterpiece woven by the hands of an omnipotent Creator. From the intricacies of our physical form to the depths of our soul, we bear the indelible mark of God's divine nature. As reflections of His image, we are called to mirror His attributes of love, compassion, and righteousness.

Our significance extends beyond mere existence. It is in the unfolding narrative of our lives that God's glory finds its fullest expression. Through the ebbs and flows of our journey, His favor is unmistakably evident, guiding our steps and illuminating our path. Every instance of His favor is a testament to His faithfulness and a beacon of His glory, shining brightly for all to see.

We are called to live lives that reflect His glory, illuminating the light and drawing others into the embrace of His love. Let us, therefore, embrace our divine calling with humility and gratitude, knowing that in our story, God's image and glory are intricately intertwined.

Confession:
I am blessed and highly favored! I am fearfully and wonderfully made, created in God’s image, I am the light of the world, hallelujah.
