In His Eyes Assignment Introduction and Context

We are who we are in Christ. Gerard Manley Hopkins wrestled with this in his poem “As Kingfishers Catch Fire.” In the end, our conclusion should be the same as his—life and humanity—we act in “God’s eye what in God’s eye we are.” If what we say is true, then when we act and when the church acts, so too does Jesus.

In one of the most popular passages of the OT, Micah tells us:

“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God” (Mic. 6:8).
