The Beauty of being Made in God's Image
As a medical student and now as a doctor, I never cease to be amazed at how the human body works and how it all fits together. Medicine has moved on a lot from thinking all illness was due to an imbalance in the four humours and there is so much that we can do now in the fight against disease. However there is still so much that we just don't understand. It really calls me to worship and praise the Creator for the complexity and beauty of the body that he has made.

For this reason, I was so excited to be assigned as the hostess for next week's Carnival of Beauty on The Beauty of being Made in God's Image. Please take some time to think about this over the next week and then post your submission on your blog at the beginning of the week. The deadline for emailing me with your details will be 9pm BST (Check your deadline for where you are in the world at the World Clock) on Tuesday, 27th March.

What is the purpose of the Carnival of Beauty?
1. Encourage women by reflecting the beauty of Christ in our writing.
2. Meet women online who cherish the beauty of Christ that we might not have met otherwise.

Who can participate?
Any Christian woman can participate as long as she falls under these guidelines:
Is in personal agreement with the Nicene Creed.
Is in personal agreement with the following statement: I believe in the Godhead of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit as revealed in the Holy Bible. I believe that Jesus Christ is the only Son of God and my only means for the forgiveness of my sins and my salvation. My salvation is found in no one but Jesus Christ.
Is not a Mormon, Jehovah’s Witness, or Seventh Day Adventist.
Does not promote the emergent conversation/movement/whatever on her blog.
Does not promote theological distinctives in her Carnival post so as to refrain from controversial debate.

How do I submit a piece to the Carnival?
Send an email to the hostess with the following information:
1. Your first name
2. The name of your blog with the link
3. The name of your piece with the link
4. A brief one or two sentence description of your piece that will be in the listing of the Carnival submissions.

In the meantime, take a look at this week's carnival hosted by Amanda at following an unknown path where they are looking at the Beauty of Photographs. Look forward to reading all the posts next week!

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
Genesis 1:27
