Image Bearers
April 15, 2024
We are image bearers of God. He says so in Genesis 1: 27. Perhaps we feel more like His image bearers on days we are healthy, productive, and successful. But many days are not like that. On the day you lose your job, on the day you bury someone you love, on the day your world turns upside down and does a 360, you are still an image bearer of God. Naomi, losing her husband and her sons, on her down days, was still such an image bearer that Ruth, her daughter in law decided she wanted the God that Naomi trusted. Tenacious faith in tough times speaks volumes.
Our world desperately needs to see real image bearers live in faith regardless of our circumstances. Remember whose image you represent.
