The Light of Likeness

We've often heard that we're made in the image and likeness of God; our creator. That seems to indicate that God has many forms, colors, genders and many shapes and sizes.
This of course, is our understanding that it is our bodies that we're talking about here and our sex, and so on.

But what if...just what if God, infinite intelligence, our creator, the Universe, Spirit...whatever name we give him (or her) isn't a body like us?

What if God is light? Energy? Vibrations? The source of all knowing and the source of all that there has been and that there will be? What then?

If we are to believe that God is light and if we are to believe that we're Spirit with a body and not the other way around...then what is made in the image of the creator if the creator doesn't have a human form?

It's our soul...it's our essence...it's our Higher Self and one could say our consciousness.
That's what is made in God's image...our light, our energy, our vibrations that we give off...that's what is made in His image. (I used His as just a reference point...not a gender)

The body becomes just a vessel or a temple that contains the light of our creator.
This light never dims, never goes out and will keep shining even after the vessel breaks down and becomes grounded on the shore.

If we start looking at people as light and energy and Spirit instead of black, brown, white, etc....then maybe we can look at accepting people for what they are...a beautiful soul created by God.
