"Let Us Make Man In Our Image"

In Genesis 1:26, God says, "Let us make man in our image..." What an humbling reality that humans are created in the image of God. But what exactly does that mean? How does being created in God's image affect who we are and what we were created to do? While we may never fully understand all that this means this side of heaven, Genesis 1 does give us a basic understanding what it means to be created in God's image.
