Creation

The last few days I have been working on a DVD project. I have been collecting pictures, organizing data and now finishing up on editing and production. It takes a number of things to create.

But do you ever wonder about the God of creation, creating through us. I have been used by God a few times to heal the sick. I could feel the power flow through me. It was neat. At other moments of divine healing I must confess I didn't feel a thing. I have also wrote some stuff. At times I have felt the pleasure of God in the writing. At others I felt nothing.

Why doesn't God make it easier on us to feel anointed, filled, empowered? Why are we still like Moses, needing to enter into some dwelling place of God in order to get filled up and re-aligned? Is it because that is the best way for us?

Many of us today are seeking to be the people of God who live daily lives in which God creates in our world through us. We are longing to partner with God, we want to be used of God in the daily grind. This is God creating. It is what we were created for.

So as we live and create projects, write, pray for the sick, raise the dead; let's all keep the amazement alive. Let's not seek an easy way, but rather let us all love paying the full price for God's creative power on the earth. Like Mary let us have a surrendered heart, even if we cannot fully comprehend the cost.

Thy Kingdom God, Thy will be done
