The man in the mirror

Genesis 1:27
"He created them, man and female. He created them in His likeness."

Can we as humans even comprehend what that means? We are created in the image of a flawless God. Each person you see, every time you lock eyes with someone, driving, shopping, at church, at school. You are walking around witnessing the hand crafted art work of God.
Yet as humans we have the wonderful habit of looking at that reflection, those brothers and sisters, perfecting them, replacing features with what we believe would make them more appealing to our human eye.
I cannot imagine the heart break of God. The time, love and care He put into perfectly forming us. But how easy is it for us too look at our images and choose every "flaw" we have. Who makes these things flaws, who decided tall dark and handsome was the perfect guy, or blond tan and curvy was the ideal woman. How often we forget the beautiful uniqueness we carry. The image and hand crafted work of God.

So next time you look in the mirror remember. That is TRUE beauty, the reflection of God.
Loving through His love.
