"let us make man in our image and likeness"
DOING is usually connected with a vocation or career, how we make a living. BEING is much deeper. It relates to our character, who we are, and how we make a life. Doing is tied in closely with activity, accomplishment and tangible things - like salary, prestige, involvements,roles and trophies. Being on the other hand has more to do with intangibles, the kind of people we become down inside, much of which can not be measured by objective yardstick and impressive awards. But of the two, being will ultimately outdistance every time.
Be aware, God emphasizes BEING more than DOING. Why? Because the character of God is manifested in Human Being while in Human Doing, the pride of life rears its ugly head.
