The Lord is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He does not faint or grow weary;
his understanding is unsearchable.
Isaiah 41:28 ESV
And I wonder at man... created in His image... the only creatures who create...
All others... beautiful... and wonder-full... as they are... work on instinct... by the plan He laid down for them at creation...
But mankind... we not only use ingenuity to create ways to improve life... but we alone create art... through word... and song... paper... ink... paints... clay... stone... chisel... for the sake of beauty... an outlet for the heart... feelings and thoughts... inexpressible... any other way...
The rest of creation... glorifies Him... just by being...
But mankind... we began by rebelling... no other creature on earth did such a thing...
We glorify Him... by dying to self... just as His Son... glorified Him...
"Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say?
'Father, save me from this hour'?
'Father, save me from this hour'?
But for this purpose I have come to this hour.
Father, glorify your name." ---Jesus
John 12:27 ESV
Unique among creation... created in His image...
How are you living... created in His image?
Are you living... for His glory...? or yours...?
