After God created every living thing, HE then said,
"Let us make man in our image and after our likenes.
And after all that HE made HE said, "It is GOOD"!
His Image
The looking glass reflects only my image
yet I was made in the image of God
to be born afresh daily of His Spirit
and my feet of His truth must be shod.
For I want to reflect only His image
and to glow of His Spirit within
because this causes men to look up to Heaven
and humbly repent of his sins.
Oh my God, none of me I cry loudly
all of Thee, Father come fill
till this clay earthly vessel is full of Your Glory
and Your face, only You I will reveal.
And Lord, my image has never been so pretty
and now, even now, it is a bit marred
but Your Glory overcomes plain earth vessels
so that all honor returns to my God.
