So what of this Eden home - this garden that God plants for His children? Rich with beauty and resources. Pleasing to the eye. Enough for all. No violence. No sweat or toil, at least in the way they are often experienced today. Relationships. Sabbath. Caring for the world that God had entrusted to them in a way that reflects God's image. All of this something God called "good." There is much here to reflect on!

What is it about being "created in the image of God" that should impact how we go about exercising "dominion", or "ruling over" the earth? Is being created in God's image more a statement of the power and rights that we have, or a statement about how we should go about interacting with and caring for the rest of creation?How does the way we understand what it means to reflect God's image impact the way in which we rule over creation?
