IN HIS IMAGE

"So how do I act as if You're alive?

How do the cells of my body,

the same ones that sweat and urinate

and get depressed

and toss and turn in bed at night -

how do these cells carry around

the splendor of the God of the universe

in a way that leaks out for others to notice?

How do I love even one person

with the love You came to bring?"

Philip Yancey

Just have to add a personal note to this one: Philip Yancey is a surgeon who authored two books that were in True's library, and that I have read several times and highly recommend to all. "In His Image", and "Fearfully and Wonderfully Made".

His books speak of the WONDERS of the human body, and how they do relate to The Creator and to ALL creation - in a way, somewhat similar to the thoughts shared by Mike Saturday when he spoke of the similarity between the makeup of our bodies to the pattern seen in so much of the world around us.
