His indelible image!
Soul Snack 9/171 ... The wonder within!
The freshly trimmed hedge revealed an eye-catching panorama!
Wistfully gazing at the distant gums he felt a beckoning. His engaged eyes witnessed the drift of a soft breeze through the canopy. It was as if the foliage was waving to him personally, inviting deeper thinking.
"Think bigger and live larger, this existence is no accident", the canopy shouted as it partly obscured the gentle skies.
Above the canopy, a flawless blue sky adorned the beauty of the trees with a special garland of its own. Without either volume or voice it shouted of Him, for Him and specifically to him.
Spurred on by the outward vista, Inwardly his thoughts now turned, further reflecting over this pleasing spectacle:
- the hands that made this beauty also made me,
- this world is fleetingly beautiful, but I am infinitely precious.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful ... Ps 139:14
His bliss concluded as God spoke again ... "all the works of my hands are externally beautiful but only my image carries my beauty within. You are my image!"
So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them. Gen 1:27
