Family Likeness

When a mother shows her child to her friends she will often hear comments such as:

“Hasn’t he got his father’s eyes?”

“You can see she’s got her mother’s nose?”

“Doesn’t he look like his grandfather?”

It is naturally for a child to have the physical attributes of their parents and in fact we would be very surprised if they did not have something of the family likeness.

What about us Christians?

Do we have something of the family likeness?

Do we reflect God’s holiness?

By our attitudes and actions is it evident to all that we are in Christ’s family?

Does our speech reflect Christ’s likeness?

Can the love of God be seen in us?

“Lord please help me to reflect your family likeness in all the areas of my life so that Christ in honoured and glorified. Amen.”
