Over the years I’ve heard the Saints referred to as our role models. In a world
where ‘celebrity’ is rife, the Saints lead
us in the right direction, that being, to
God as opposed fame and fortune. Many
of the Saints were something of a ’rum’
lot, they were not perfect in life, however they came to mirror the image of
Christ in the world in which they lived;
either through prayer or service. It is of
course, the role of each of us saints in
the making, to portray that image also.
What image of Christ do you portray?
What is your image of Jesus? This is a
question we will be pondering on soon. I
know Advent is some weeks away, but
not long! During Advent we are going to
be focussing on ‘Images of God’ as we
lead up to the Feast of the Nativity,
when the Image of God became flesh
and lived among us. You will be asked to
share your images, either through a
word, through a picture or poem, whatever. These thoughts and feelings of
each of us will be displayed around our
churches. This may help others in their
relationship with the Father. (Is your image of God as Father? It’s not to everyone.) You may benefit from thinking of
God in another way. Today though we reflect upon those who know the true image of God in His presence.
