My soul clings to you,Your right hand upholds me.
Created in the image of God . . .
“It was before your eyes that Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified.” — Galatians 3:1
God has called us to be image bearers of God. That’s what we were created for. It is easy to think, I need to be “holy” so I can portray God’s image. History or His story has another take on portraying the image of God. The pinnacle point in history where the greatest portrayal God took place was at the cross in Jesus. As we bear God’s image in our own lives, it’s not an outward holiness that is the greatest portrayal of God, but Christ being portrayed as crucified in our lives that is at the pinnacle of our being made in the image of God. As the Gospel permeates us and Christ becomes great, we fulfill what we were created to be, image bearers of God.
