God created man in His own image; in the image of God He
created him. Genesis 1:27
We are all concerned with our image to some extent. I
make it a point to exercise daily by either running, resistance training,
playing tennis, or swimming, so that I can stay healthy and fit into the
occasional spandex super-hero costume. I am not alone in my quest to look
and feel great, in fact, many people spend countless hours every week in the
gym or participating in some sort of exercise because they are concerned with
their image.
The Bible tells us that we are created in God’s image.
This not only means our outward appearance, but our spiritual and emotional
being as well. When you think about it, we put a lot of emphasis on our
physical bodies, these temporary dwellings, that will be transformed when we
leave this earth to spend eternity in heaven. Our spiritual being, or
souls, are with us forever and when neglected, we are neglecting the most
important part of what God created each of us to be.
Our spiritual well-being is the most vital part of our
being; don’t forget to take care of your soul too!
