"Created in His Image"


“We consider that God has created man with a mind capable of instruction, and a faculty which may be enlarged in proportion to the heed and diligence given to the light communicated from heaven to the intellect; and that the nearer man approaches perfection, the clearer are his views, and the greater his enjoyments, till he has overcome the evils of his life and lost every desire for sin; and like the ancients, arrives at that point of faith where he is wrapped in the power and glory of his Maker, and is caught up to dwell with Him. But we consider that this is a station to which no man ever arrived in a moment” [Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph Smith (2007), 210–11].7


“Created in His Image”

Thus to have intelligence
abilities beyond our view
within our imagination thou
step by step one at a time
we can elevate upwards
as we’ve been commanded
unknowing all of our goals
our abilities to achieve
created in His image
eternally able to grow
within righteousness
and full obedience’s!
