Good day everyone.

I am a nursing student. My ultimate goal is to be a travel nurse.

I am happily married for over 12 years and have 3 children: ages 6, 4, and 2. Family is the most important thing in the world and I want to help families work out problems so they do not have to be torn apart.

If your family is as important to you as mine is to me, get the help you need. If you do not like my advice, I respect that but look for someone that works for your needs.

Your family is worth it!

What is the most common physical appearance of God to everyone? (link)
I see you already received a long answer already but I did not see the answer I expected to see so I will elaborate a bit.

You asked about the appearance of Jesus... the answer you already got was adequate in that Jesus should be portrayed in paintings and such as a middle eastern and look much like your average man from Iraq/Iran/Pakistan, etc. with darker complexion, darker hair, not super tall, blonde, blue eyes... etc. After all, Jesus was from (if my geography isn't as horriffic as I think) modern day Iraq.

What does God look like? I use a new life translation bible, a study bible as the King James and other versions go much too far over my head... I just can't get any kind of spiritual reading out of those bibles as I have to concentrate too much on what on earth they are saying!!! So, my NLT bible says in Genesis 1:27 that Got created human beings in his own image. It goes on to make clear that...

"Knowing that we are made in God's image ... provides a solid basis for self-worth... Because we bear God's image, we can feel positive about ourselves. Criticizing or downgrading ourselves [or others] is criticizing what God has made and the abilities he has given us." And something my pastor has said before is that it is not good to use the phrase "after all... I am ONLY human". Because we are made in God's image... we should be proud of who we are and feel we can do anything because after all... we ARE human.

That's more than you ever asked for LOL!!!

I don't know what your purpose for asking is... for a school project, an arguement solution, personal growth... etc. but I hope between my answer and the others you have received, that you got a good answer that will help you.

Good luck.
