Image of God - seek it in each human being

01/31/2004

Try to understand me, and not only will you cease to be astonished when I tell you that I look for the divinity which lives in every man and every woman, but you will try to do as I do. It is by behaving in this way that we show our respect for the works of God. Because I admire the wisdom of the Lord, I sense something infinitely beautiful and precious in every being which deserves to be considered and loved. Too bad if some of you make fun of my attitude and think that I live in a world of illusion! On the contrary, I know that I live in the true faith which rests in eternal truths. One of these truths is that God created man in His image. So, by seeking the divinity in each man and in each woman, not only do we show the Lord our faith and our love, but we also intensify His presence within us.
