Man is the summit of the Creator's work, as the inspired account expresses by clearly distinguishing the creation of man from that of the other creatures.Reflection: We often hear it said of humans that "we are just another animal," though everything from art to airplanes seems to prove otherwise. As children of God we must cherish our privileged status and gravely own up to the responsibility that goes with it.
- CCC No. 343
Prayer: Father in heaven, as your children, may we always be mindful of the dignity that is ours.
