I had a perfect Sunday afternoon today just getting to drive out on the gravel roads in the wide open spaces, and then relax in the shade of a huge old tree for a while. God speaks to me the most through nature. Maybe its just because that's where I've learned to listen to Him the most. I just feel so close to God, and so focused when there is nothing but the beauty of His creation around me. We had a good long chat about life and my hopes and dreams. I have an amazing dream that I believe God has placed in my heart to help guide my preperation for the future, but for right now its our little secret and its kind of fun keeping it that way :)
The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the works of His hands. Psalm 19:1
The first attribute of God that we see in the Bible is that he is creative. Gen 1:1 "In the beginning God created..." And, we all are made in His image and His likeness (Gen 1:26)...therefore we all have that creativeness in us too! I wish more people would open up and let their creativity come out, whether through painting, drawing, writing, cooking, building, making music, dancing, taking pictures, sewing... it is all a part of God being released into our world. When we make a beautiful creation, or take the time to observe one, it can be a time of deep communion with our Lord that will not just stop with us but continue on to those we share with. So from one girl who is longing to experience more of her Savior, to a world of creative souls I beg you to create, don't be afraid to try, open up so we all can let God arise.
"You make everything glorious...and I am yours..." David Crowder Band
