January 7

Created in God's Image

Pray: Thank God for creating you in His image.

Play: Take a mirror and your kids to look into it.  Ask them if you are actually in the mirror or if it is a representation of you.  Have them make silly faces in the mirror and see if there is a way for them to “trick” the mirror in misrepresenting what they look like. Ask them what features look like yours.

Relay: When God created us, He created us in the image of Himself.  This means that He gave us some of the same characteristics that He has.  For instance, He created us for relationships because He is relational (the Trinity).  He made us smart, caring, etc.  Have your children come up with a list of characteristics of their own.

Obey:

Why do you think God created man in his own image?

What should we do as image-bearers?

What are some characteristics of God that he gave humans?


Scripture of the Day: Genesis 2:2 – So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
