Divine resemblance
What joy is brought forth
When the Father sees the resemblance of himself in his little one’s
A resemblance in appearance
A resemblance in His Acts of Love
A resemblance in His acts of mercy
Acts of forgiveness
In Joy
In goodness
In His Image AND His Likeness
His majesty is magnified
God is glorified
And he will pour out His Gifts those who imitate his goodness and grace
He witnesses to the power of Tenderness reflected
An echo of all that is true, good, and beautiful
And Grace magnifies inwardly and outwardly
“My Soul Doth Magnify the Lord”
The soul As a mirror reflection of Grace
Becomes full of Grace
“Hail Mary, full of Grace, the Lord is with Thee”
The Mother also receives great joy in the resemblance in her little ones
Genesis 1:26-31 (DR)
26 “And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness: and let him have dominion over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and the beasts, and the whole earth, and every creeping creature that moveth upon the earth.
27 And God created man to his own image: to the image of God he created him: male and female he created them.
28 And God blessed them, saying: Increase and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it, and rule over the fishes of the sea, and the fowls of the air, and all living creatures that move upon the earth.
29 And God said: Behold I have given you every herb bearing seed upon the earth, and all trees that have in themselves seed of their own kind, to be your meat:
30 And to all beasts of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to all that move upon the earth, and wherein there is life, that they may have to feed upon. And it was so done.
31 And God saw all the things that he had made, and they were very good. And the evening and morning were the sixth day.“
