How much more beautiful are you who was created in the image and likeness of God.
In His image He created you!
Not the stars, not the sky, or even the mountains or the seas.
But you! You were created much more beautiful than they.
Is not the creator more beautiful than the creation?
If all the beauty in the skies and on the earth reflect the beauty of God, then what does that say about you who is created after His image?
When you read beautiful poetry and it really speaks of ones beauty, isn’t it not but a reflection of the heart that wrote it?
And isn’t it not the heart that makes a person who they are?
So, if you are made in the image and likeness of the author of the poem, should not your image be the beauty of his heart?
Then are you not more beautiful than the skies and all the earth, being that you are the heart that all creation shows a fraction of?
When you take in all the beauty of the stars in the night sky,
or the bright morning sun shining over a field of wild flowers, think on this:
If something so beautiful is just a fraction of the heart that created it, then how much more beautiful is the entirety of that heart?
Then look again into natures mirror and see just how beautiful you are in your entirety, who was made after the likeness of the heart that all creation shows just a fraction of.
Much more beautiful are you…
