He (God) governs the universe, and yet, He can occupy Himself with the provision of a covering for one of His creatures. He guides the angel’s flight and takes notice of a crawling worm. He humbles Himself to regulate the movements of those countless orbs that roll through infinite space, and to record the fall of a sparrow. – C. H. Macintosh (1820 – 1896) – Also quotes by others,

Adam’s heart, soul, and spirit were to reflect the mind, and thought of God within his inner being; therefore, the very image of Adam outwardly (the things that are seen) and inwardly (the things that are unseen) would reflect the image of God. – Michael Haigh
