A Creative Commission

To be creative is to cooperate with God the Creator. The word creative usually applies to someone who is inventive, artistic, original, ingenious, clever and skilled. But it can include a person who just makes the day work as it should, who gets the job done and makes things turn out OK by juggling several roles.

God commanded that we should search the limits of our creative possibilities. I heard a story about a man who studied rattlesnakes for fifty years and wrote two books on the subject. Although this man’s passion for snakes may give you the creeps, he saw them as God’s creation to be studied, to learn from, to be respected, for their venom can be deadly.

Jesus commissioned his disciples to go into all the world to teach, preach and baptize in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. He promised them his presence, powers, and provision so they could witness for him. Jesus commanded each of us to use our creativity for his purpose. He promised his presence would be with us constantly.
