You are made in His image!
Genesis 1:27-28
So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them; male and female He created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”
What stands out about this verse, is that we are made in the image of God Himself. When we look at ourselves in the mirror, we can be assured that's how God looks, amazing! We already know that God doesn't create sub-standard, duplicates and poor quality. That tells us that mankind, was made to perfection! After everything God created, He looked at it and was pleased with it (Genesis 1). This includes us, we are perfect just the way we are. May we never look down at God's creation, seeing only the flaws, there's so much good in you that pleases God- focus on that.
Furthermore, God gave us an instruction, to be fruitful and increase. This applies to everything. Whatever you touch, you are expected to bear fruits, your Father, created everything and He lives in you through the Holy Spirit. The same power that was able to create heaven and earth, lives in you. Use it to bring honour and glory to God. You don't need to struggle on your own, God is partnering with you to create amazing things here on earth for His honour. Align yourself with His vision and mission and see Him working through you! It's a privilege to have a Father that has deposited such power in us, to rule over all animals and to most important care for what He entrusted to us (everything on earth). So next time you think of littering on the road, remember, God gave you a responsibility to take care of the earth. Do the right thing!
