In my previous post, I wrote about how we may relate to God the Trinity, by briefly outlining how we may be image bearers of the Trinity through mind, body and spirit, which I would now like to unpack in more detail looking at us as image bearers of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Throughout my journey of faith, I have had various conversations with fellow Christians about closeness with God, and what is common with most, is that we have all been through periods when we didn’t feel as close to Him. When that happens, we often conclude...

  The Lord is their strength, And He is the saving refuge of His anointed. Save Your people, And bless Your inheritance; Shepherd them also, And bear them up forever.
