God's 'Image' is the 'Personhood' of God.
God's 'Likeness' is the 'Eternity' of God.
Human beings are created in the image and likeness of God. We are persons with eternity.
A person is the one who is capable of self-knowledge, of self-possession and of freely giving oneself and entering into communion with other persons.
The human body is animated by the eternal soul. In our human nature, we unite both spiritual and material worlds. (Ref. CCC 355-366)

Prayer :
Thank you, dear God, for creating me in your own image and likeness. I need you in order to always be a good person and to keep my soul pure. Let me not be caught up in the material world but spend enough time in the awareness of my soul
