Like Father Like Son
Genesis 1:26 “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our
likeness . . .”
And so we were created in his image. Have you ever stopped to wonder
EXACTLY what being created in his “image” means to the person that you are?
The bible often speaks of emotions that God has that are the same emotions that
we possess as humans: joyous, proud, pleased, jealous, angry and disgusted.
"I’m amazed that God has these emotional responses to things that we, his children,
have done . . . and continue to do. Because of our “likeness”, I have to wonder if
one way to know more about the intimate thoughts of God is to look very deep
within myself. This definitely isn’t to say that I’ll understand his ways, but I can
possibly gain slight insight into his emotions, and consequently, better understand
his actions and responses to me and mankind.
The poems in this ebook are inspired by personal observations of my own children,
their very human and universal behaviors . . . and reflections in the mirror."
