You Were Made For This....

             In the beginning there was a story. A world entered light, life, and took shape. Once upon a time imagination entered everyday people young and old, and tales true and made up took form. In a galaxy far, far, away we escaped for a time, then came back to reality as we learned that leaving ordinary lives sometimes is okay; as long as we come back. Came back with that blessed desire to create something truly life-giving from the refreshing we received on our creativity sabbatical.                Be fruitful and multiply, in Jesus' name. You were made in His likeness to create, and what you carry is His gift to you; just let Him show you how as you listen to, and follow Him in the creative process.  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel free to share thi...

In Your Mess

        In your mess, embrace the chaos. In the unfinished, don't panic; don't let it discourage you either. Building anything new or different is messy. Creating what we're unfamiliar with is never neat, organized, or ever smooth. This is where it all happens: the blessed thing that is becoming reality, and with it a new grace to create not known before.            Keep creating boldly, intentionally, strategically, and especially prayerfully; and don't give up if that good and constructive thing looks like an unmanageable mess at first (no matter how long that is). Just create that thing in Jesus' name, that good and constructive thing, letting Him lead you through it all.  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel free to share this blog with someone else who could be blessed also.

This Is A Letter

              This is a letter, from a modern-day man, to one who may need this. Here I am writing once again, of creating and hoping as you do. This is a message, to someone somewhere, hoping you don't quit, especially when it's tough and creativity doesn't happen easily. This is a word, a surprising "word for someone" that you have a gift, one that can help others (and will help you too), that is good and constructive and will bring others to Jesus. This is an attempt to reach out, hoping it finds you well, and if it doesn't it helps you be well, remembering you aren't alone. Jesus is calling you, calling you to create, find healing and give it (as He gives, works, and leads you), remembering you can create still in a way that speaks of Him (however that looks).  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel ...

To Be.....

                I'll just write, to be right, hoping that's alright; putting down words that may or may not be seen or heard. I'll just write, to be right, hoping that's alright; brain-dumping something on some snowy digital white page in the vast lands of digital that make way through a creative "white-out" I'm walking through.                  One word, then two, writing again. One step, then two, walking through; here I remember this isn't lack but block. Busy holds me; hurt keeps me; or so they try. I acknowledge the hardships that remain, remember the effects left on me; still I'll just write, to find a way that's right, remembering that's alright; here I'm clearing a cluttered mind, heart and soul, and that's the goal. Grateful for creative release and relief found as Jesus works in this "old soul".  Thank You Jesus, thank You!  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a goo...

Let It

        Let it have it's way, this unearthly peace. Let it work deep down, washing pain and hurt with hope. Let the peace of Jesus make you whole, restored again; and be thankful.           Seek His presence and His help, He will show you how.  -inspired by Colossians 3:15  Sidenote: If any of the writing on this blog has made a good impact on your life in someway (EVEN if it was something you may have enjoyed reading for a particular reason), please feel free to share this blog with someone else who could be blessed also.

Strange Monday (Poetry)

I wish I had something clever to say, here on this unusual Monday. I wonder if I should stop and pray, or simply stay in weird rhymes today. I wish I had something clever to say, here on this unusual Monday; writing and creating anyway. I wish I knew what to say, here on this unmotivated Monday; writing and creating weird rhymes anyway. I'm lookin’ and seein’ there was something to say: create anyway even on a strange day, whether or not it's a strange Monday.
