Does God Get Back Pain? On the Image of God

If we’re made in God’s image, what exactly does that mean? Surely not that God shares our crow’s feet or back pain. The likeness runs deeper. We create, feel, reason and reflect — echoes of the Creator’s own life. Yet every answer leads us toward mystery. We resemble God enough to recognize him, but not enough to contain him. The image is real, but the One it reflects is far greater.
