A Thought...

    Verbally, we seem to be committed to the idea that man is created in the likeness of God.  But are we committed to it intellectually?  If the divine likeness is our premise, then the question arises: How should a being created in the image of God act, think, feel?  How should we live in a way which is compatible with our being a likeness of God?
-Abraham Heschel
 
    A mind-provoking thought...Do we truly live our lives in the way that we should?  Do we fully comprehend the fact that we are created in the image of our Creator?  Do we understand that the Creator of the Universe, the One who put the stars in the sky, the One who filled the oceans, who molded the land, who created the living creatures that roam the earth, who breathed life into our beings is on our side and will give us all that we seek if we merely surrender our being to His will?  Considering we are only here because He chose to give us life, giving our life back would be a small price to pay, don't you think?  May we surrender all that we are and all that we have to the One who is worthy, since all that we have was given by Him alone.
