Despite the immeasurable chasm that separates us and God, He remains mindful of each one of us, and cares for us intimately as individuals. He delights to be known by us. We often feel small and insignificant, but God has honored us as His image bearers and given us a staggering responsibility – to extend His dominion and protective care over creation. Of course, sin has terribly distorted the image of God in us; and it's derailed our ability to live as stewards for His glory. But God has graciously given us a fresh start! Jesus has come to this world and done everything the first Adam failed to do. He is the Second Adam, the Righteous Man ruling over creation by God's own design. And He promises all who are His redeemed image bearers a share in His rule and reign.
