Cover2Cover - reflection 1: God said except ....
I am starting a reflection series based on a book I bought on Doulos. It is a guide 'Cover to Cover' where bible passages are arranged chronologically.
First reading is on pre-creation and creation. All of His creation came about by His word. Except Adam. He actually made him, mould him and breath into him. That's the key difference. We are made in His image.
This means that there is no place for me treat fellow human as object. Each is made in God's image. The present world, with all the rush and busyness, we tend to 'objectise' people. It just make our lives 'easier' but not better. We too beging to lose our human-ness when we start to 'objectise' others. We 'objectise' oursleves.
Lord, help me to remember that the next person I talk to is made in your image. Amen.
