We are made in the image and likeness of God. This verse form the 1st book of Genesis had been controversial for some “practical atheist”. They claim that this passage from the creation account, as something that means we are somewhat gods and goddesses or little gods.

Yet, I believe that this passage if understood with faith, is so rich and indeed, so strong in revealing how special human beings are as one of God’s creations - being God’s masterpiece. God creates us out of God’s free, loving and purposeful act. Yet far more than being His creation, He created us into somebody that is like Godself, extraordinary! Thus, I am lead to a question of “who is God for me?” so as ponder and reflect on what am I called for and what is the purpose of my existence. So first, I’ll answer the first question I posted on myself. With much certainty and sincerity, I say that God is a God of goodness and love - He is supreme for he alone knows everything about me even the skeletons in my closet. He alone understands and loves me despite my imperfections and shortcomings. He continually provides and sustains me with every spiritual blessing like care, love and joy and physical needs such as food and drink. Most importantly, He is God who continually creates me, guiding my footsteps in becoming the person I ought to be - the person of that which I am created. Thus, if this is the God I know, then this is the purpose and meaning of my existence - to be like God in all things - to be good as he is good, and loving as He is loving. I am called to be a person of love and goodness. God in his divine goodness creates me but the goodness I experienced with Him is not for me to keep nor hide, rather to share with others and reveal to them the good God I come to know and love.

Indeed God is the alpha and the omega - the source and the end. For he is the one creator who creates me and He is the ultimate meaning of my life.

MELBOURNE, Australia - The Hell family says it may tell a Catholic school in Australia where to go after it objected to enrolling their son because of his name.

Officials said the boy had been offered a place at the St. Peter the Apostle school in the southern city of Melbourne after discussions between the principal, the parish priest and the family over his name.

But Alex Hell said he would rather send 5-year-old Max elsewhere because the school balked at taking the boy over his family name.

“We are the victims of our name,” Hell said Monday.

Hell said he and his wife approached St. Peter the Apostle school about enrolling Max because the boy was being bullied at his current school because of his name, the Herald Sun newspaper reported on its Web site.

The Catholic school supported a plan to enroll Max using his mother’s maiden name, Wembridge, but then withdrew its invitation when the parents changed their minds about the name, Hell said. The school backed down and offered Max a place only when Hell took the issue to the media, he said.

“The school has turned around and said Max can go there, but why would you want to go there after being victimized?” Hell said.

The family was considering moving to his wife’s hometown to find a different school, he said.

Director of Catholic Education in Victoria state, Stephen Elder, said using the boy’s mother’s name was the parents’ idea to “assist the child in the transition of schools.”

“After discussions between the parish priest and principal, St. Peter the Apostle School has made an offer of enrollment to the student,” Elder said in a statement. “The school is working with the family in the best interests of the child.”

Hell said he had Austrian heritage and that the name means “bright.”

When I was in highschool I was wondering what does WWJD stands for since I’ve seen my classmates wearing those bracelets but everytime I ask them they always tell me that "Its a secret, few people only knew the meaning of this one" right! .
