Very often we stand in front of the mirror and admire ourselves… We all love to do that!!!!
Some days we feel very charming & beautiful and some other days we are not happy with our looks…
There are even some other days when our friends, parents, siblings or dear ones comment negatively on our looks or even on our personality. And I am sure few of those comments would have made us wonder
“Am I really like that?”
Their words influence us and most of the time affects our confidence.
Hey… Have we passed such negative comments on others? Uhmmm… maybe not always directly…. many times behind their back –
Oh My.. she is very dark !!!
he is a shorty…. he is a fatso….
I have not seen such an ugly face!!!!
blah.. blahh.. blahhhh….”
Do you think this is right?
In our defense we will say
“Everyone does it…. so why not me”?
“Everyone does it” doesn’t mean it is the right thing to do. We should always do what is right.
Let us explore and find the right thing!!
OPENING THE TREASURE BOOK 
CLUE 1 – 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.”
Sometimes we say or we hear others say “He is a spitting image of his father or she looks exactly like her mother and so on. Here the bible says, God created humans in “HIS OWN” image and created them as man and woman. This means we are the spitting image of our Father, GOD Himself – and this applies to both man and woman.
CLUE 2 –Psalms 139:13-14
“For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and
wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.”
God formed us inside our mother’s womb. We are made fearfully and wonderfully. Each of us are a handiwork of God – HIS Creative Masterpiece.
Treasures uncovered
I AM “UNIQUE” & “SPECIAL”.
I AM CREATED IN
GOD’S OWN IMAGE &
SO ARE OTHERS.
If we think we are “not good enough” or we are ugly, then we are doubting God and his wonderful creativity.
If we pass negative comments about others appearance, we are insulting God’s creativity and God, the creator Himself
Prayer:
Father, thank you for creating me so wonderfully and in your own image. Thank you for revealing to me that i am special and unique…. Please forgive me for my bad attitude. Help me also to remember that all people around me are created in your image. Amen!!
