You are a reflection of God

"... Because God made humans in his image reflecting God's very nature.  You're here to bear fruit, reproduce, lavish life on the earth, live bountifully!" Genesis 9, The Message, Pg. 29

You are a reflection of God!  Therefore, as His reflection, live to bear fruit, reproduce, live life generously and bountifully.

God created you.

“God created human beings: he created them godlike, perfecting God’s nature.  He created them male and female.  God blessed them: “Prosper! Reproduce! Fill the Earth! Take charge!...” 1 Genesis, The Message, pg 21

God created you!  God created you in His nature; you are a reflection of God.  Therefore, stop wasting away this precious life of yours!  Stand tall and live with the character and authority God has given you: Prosper, reproduce, fill the Earth, take charge!
