Design

We were made in His image (Gen 1:26), to fulfill his desires (Rev 4:11).

That hit me today like a ton of bricks falling off the Burj Dubai. I've always realized we were made in his image, and that he takes pleasure in us, but that he designed us with every intent, faculty, and ability we have with the purpose of fulfilling his desire to have a relationship with us (Exo 34:14) really struck me today. It means we lack nothing that prevents us from having a perfect relationship with him. Are we sinners? Yes. But are we still made in his image? Yes. Can we still fulfill his purpose? Yes. We lack nothing. The only thing holding us back from that perfect relationship is the sin inside of us. Which, he has already come and conquered. So we really lack nothing now. I pray everyone would realize that, stop living a life as if they can't do any better than they are doing now, and accept his blood, let it wash them clean, and start living the life he intended us to.
