In His Image

1 Peter 4: 11 "whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles of God; whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies—in order that in everything God may be glorified through Jesus Christ."

Genesis 1:27 "So God created man in his own image,in the image of God he created him;male and female he created them."

 We have been created in the image of God and this is something we know all too well.  But it comes with great responsibility.  In the years when Alexander the great was ruler over the Greek people, there was a young man also with the name of Alexander in a small village.  He heard of all the mighty things that Alexander the great did and he had a desire to follow in his footsteps.  So this young man joined the military and on his first battle, when he was lined up with the other soldiers... he started panicking and his courage failed him.  Alexander ordered that he should be held captive until the battle is over.  After the battle Alexander the great wanted to know this young man's name whom he saw as a coward.  When he hear that his name was also Alexander,  he stooped down and replied: "Change your name, or change your attitude!"

We are made in His image.  It is time we act like it in our daily lives!  from walking, talking, acting to loving those around us. We are His representatives!
