WORD:
“So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.“ (Genesis 1:27, NLT)
THOUGHT:
We too quickly forget, when we see another, that they too are image bearers of God. People with disabilities often have their value and worth questioned in society. God does not question it. He calls us to help everyone to uncover this divine truth, that every person is fearfully and wonderfully made.
PRAYER:
Father, in our interactions with others, especially those experiencing disabilities, may they experience the value and worth You have given them. May our actions and words help others to uncover who they really are in You.
