we live, in the post-Pandemic age, in the first and second world, in a society of consumption. what we see, we consume. what we hear, we consume. we are followers of this one, followers of that one. we strive to be relevant to someone. our followers. our audience. even ourselves.
but we must produce to be relevant. if we create nothing, if we only re-post content, we are not creative, we are still a consumer.
creativity reflects the single, most unequivocal characteristic of God, that is, the first creator. The prime creator. The one who does not consume, the one who creates.
if my goal today, tonight, is to consume, i have ignored the dream God placed within me. it is challenging most because i have expectations of myself that i may not meet. today. tonight. tomorrow.
the answer to these earthly thoughts is to create anyway. write what is in your heart, your mind, your soul. let God do the work in you. it may not reach the stars, but it may reach one who is changed. and that will make all the difference, if it is done in the love of the Father.
create anyway.
