One of the things I appreciate about social media is I get a chance to see the projects you’re working on. Whether you paint, sew, do crafts, take photos, dance, or whatever, I love seeing you thrive in doing the thing that recharges your soul.
I think when we’re in the mode of creating we are reflecting the creative side of God. After all, He is the creator of all things and we are like Him when we enjoy creating something. When I write I’d like to think I partner with the imaginative side of God so I can adequately express things that are on His heart.
Right now I’m participating in National Novel Writing Month. It’s a world-wide community that encourages each other to write 50,000 words in the month of November. That’s roughly 1,700 words each day. It’s been a few years since I’ve attempted this tremendous feat, but what I love about it is the daily prodding to keep tapping the creative side of my brain. Or in other words, I play with my imaginary friends that I’ve created in my head and write down their story. (If you’re curious, I’m sharing my progress on my Facebook page HERE). When I’m creating a story, I feel like I’m partnering with God because ultimately I’m telling His story woven through my words. For me, it’s a truly beautiful thing.
What project are you currently working on? Next time you’re working on it ask God how it’s reflecting His nature. Enjoy partnering with Him in expressing your creative side.
