I've heard it before. I wish it wasn't true. So, often we are more concerned with making God into our image rather than letting ourselves be transformed into His. Here's some proof ...
"You can safely assume you've created God in your own image when it turns out that God hates all the same people you do." — Anne Lamott
Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behavior from their parents. Mostly what God does is love you. Keep company with him and learn a life of love. Observe how Christ loved us. His love was not cautious but extravagant. He didn't love in order to get something from us but to give everything of himself to us. Love like that.
Eph. 5:1-2
"Do not think that love, in order to be genuine, has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired." - Mother Teresa
