A sure eternal perspective on reality is the best way to remain full of inspiration as we impart faith. Let u s begin our investigation into the personhood of children ‘in the beginning ‘. The mystery of creation is a mystery of love. God made from nothing a cosmos which was not Him. All that exists is either created or Creator.  Words have always failed and always will fail to convey the First Gift that God has given:  life itself, which is shared out from the Life­ giver’s very Being. The most Godlike reflection of the Life­ giver in creation is humankind. ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness’ [Gen. 1 :26].  Each human has Godlike characteristics and the potential to live – to love – like God, in God, forever.   As God is Trinity, Three-One, so humanity is many-called-to-be-one.
