A great question that many Christians have tried to answer now I will take my turn to try and answer this great question. God showed how much he truly loved us as flawed men not only did he give his only son as a sacrifice for our sins he also made us in his likeness, showing that regardless of the things that we did to disobey him he still wanted to be connected to us. "Man was made last was made last of all the creatures: this was both an honor and a favor to him" (Genesis 1:26, NKJV). As the saying goes we often save the best for last and that is what God did when he was making the Earth. The almighty father saved his greatest and most prized creation for very last that shows he took a great deal of care and pride when he made man. God could have chosen to make us in in shape and form he desired he could've made us no better than the animals we walk amongst in the world today but he chose to make us superior to those beasts. Even after the fall of Adam and Eve God could have chosen to change the form of man and make us deformed and ugly and not in his image at all, but he chose not to do again showing his unbridled love for us.
"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand" (Isaiah 41:10, ESV). This passage speaks volumes about the love God has for man as his creation, as an all omnipotent being God chooses to call himself our God and tells us not to fear him for he shall uplift us and that he is always with us. If this is not a prime example of love I do not know what is. God could choose to rule over us with an iron fist instead he rules us with kindness, devotion, and never-ending love. "The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?" (Psalm 118:6, ESV). This passage shows that God is our ultimate protector as that no man can harm us as long as our father God is looking over us.
