In Gods image we are perfect

So I was on a walk today with my dog today and I was looking at my shadow, realizing that my hair looked horrible. As I walk I usually listen to KLove the Christian Radio station. But today I was listening to my iPod and the song Gold by Britt Nicole came on as well as Image of God by Barlow Girl. 

Genesis 1:26 - And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Genesis 1:27 - So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Colossians 1:16 - For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

The lyrics of Image of God really make me think: Tell me why do I, why do I try

Try so hard to please you

Can you promise me, In a few years

You will even remember my name

And I am made in the image of God

I am loved for who I am

We try so hard to please him when really everything (okay most things) that we do and how we look is perfect in God's eyes. We are made in his image, made to be just like him. To him, we are worth something; we are worth more than gold. 

You were walking on the moon, now you're feeling low What they said wasn't true, you're beautiful Sticks and stones break your bones, I know what you're feeling Words like those won't steal your glow, you're one in a million This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) You're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) Well everybody keeps score, afraid you're gonna lose Just ignore they don't know the real you All the rain in the sky can't put out your fire Of all the stars out tonight you shine brighter This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) You're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) So don't let anybody tell you that you're not loved And don't let anybody tell you that you're not enough Yeah there are days that we all feel like we're messed up But the truth is that we're all diamonds in the rough So don't be ashamed to wear your crown You're a king you're a queen inside and out You glow like the moon, you shine like the stars This is for you, wherever you are Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, You're gold This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold (So hold your head) So hold your head up high,

It's your time to shine From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold (gold gold, you're gold) You're worth more than gold (gold gold you're gold) So don't be ashamed to wear your crown You're a king you're a queen inside and out
