For Thought
If, as the Scripture teaches, man is the only being in creation who bears the “image” of God, then ask yourself today: How much of God’s image is reflected in me?

Contemplation
“For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.” (Col. 1:16 -17)
