READ
Genesis 1:26-28
26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” 27 So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. 28 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.”

REFLECT
Understanding the gospel starts with understanding where we came from. We are made in God’s image and are reflections of God’s glory. This fact alone provides a solid basis for self-worth and purpose.
APPLY
Q: Where did we come from? Who created human beings?
Q: Are you trying to make God in your image or are you living as an example of God’s image?
Q: Do you know someone who is lacking in self-worth and purpose? Share with them the fact that we were made in the image of God.

PRAY
"Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy."
Thank you, God, for making me in Your image! You are the creator of all things and from whom all blessings flow. Keep me from trying to make You in my image. Remind me to reflect on your image and glory in all that I do.
