What Have You Created Lately?


What have you created lately? Creating something doesn’t just have to come from making something, drawing something, building something, or writing something. Creativity can come in many shapes and in many forms. It is one of the things that truly separates us from the rest of creation. We have the ability to create unlike any other part of creation. We were made in the image of God who is the epitome of creating. We fulfill a portion of our purpose and we glorify our own creator when we are creating.

Unfortunately the world has done a pretty good job of stepping in and fulfilling the role we as Christians should be filling. As Christians…connected with the power of God and blessed with the mind of Christ…we should be creating more than any other group on the face this earth. We should be the ones setting the standard for which the rest of the world is left wondering, “How do they do that?”

We share an advantage that just cannot be overcome. It cannot be competed with. It is impossible to best. We have within us the mind of Christ…

Be creative today and don’t limit your understanding of what creativity is.

1 Corinthians 2:10-16 – “The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment: "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ.”

Have a blessed day,
