"In Constant Creation"
Picture this, you just got home from a nice day at the... (whatever makes you more relaxed) and as soon you walk through the door, you start to look around, your whole house is a big mess! There's paper all over the place, crayons "art" on your perfectly white walls, shoes, socks, toys, dirty dishes in the sink, on the table, on the floor and... what heck! How did cheerios got stuck to the celling? You take a deep breath and then, your insticve "spirit for creation" kicks in. Spirit for creation?! You must be asking your selves. Yes! I say. Aren't we all daughters of an incredibly creative God? Did He or did He not made us like unto His own image? Did we or did we not inheritage His likeness in body and spirit? So, what's the point? My point is that you don't give enough credibility to yourself when it comes about appreciating the talent that our Father in Heaven has bless you with. "Me? Talented? Ha-ha!" Hey, stop laughing at yourself! Because God has never laughed at you, if He did, He was laughing with you that's for sure.
Ok, let's go back to the messy house -I know, we do have the tendency to get a little distracted when it comes about house chores, but it always happen because something more important came out, so let's leave on that. We need to stick together on this girlfriends!
When your instinctive spirit of creation kicks in for witnessing such tragical mess in your lovely home, the first feeling you get is... no, no! Is not "let's clean this mess", but "let's create a better environment". That's very godly to think that way.
Remember when our Father in Heaven created the world, what was the first thing that He saw when He decided to create? Let's check it out in Genesis 1: 2 "And the earth was without form, and void..." Hum! I'm sure that was not a pretty sight in the Lord's eyes. And what did He do about that? His creative spirit went into action! He created light, the heavens, the waters, the plants and flowers, and all living creatures, and then, after creating this beautiful and glorious world, He created man and woman, to live and enjoy the bliss of His wonderful creation. Amazing huh? Now, let's go back AGAIN to our messy house, is time to create! And you look around and ask yourself "where do I start?" It's ok, you can go ahead and laugh, now you are figuring it out how normal you are huh? I'm pretty sure that we all have asked ourselves the same question "where do I begin". Now, you start to use your super powers to start creating. You pick one piece of paper off the carpet and then another and another, and all the sudden they disappear! They all safely "invisible" in the garbage bag. Now you move on to the dishes, next is vacuuming the crumbs of the floor, and miraculously remove the crayon's mark off the walls and then, everything begins to take form... your house begins to look like a home again. It is finished! And it is glorious and beautiful! If were for you, you could just sit down and stare it at all day huh? But you can't. :( yeah, I know, is sad. But the purpose of creating all is that so your children can enjoy the beauty of your efforts in creating something so wonderful. Look at our Father in Heaven for example. He created this beautiful earth in such a manner that there's no way we cannot feel the purpose of all that. He did so we may have joy and find comfort and peace even when we don't need it.The beauty of His creations are always there. He knew exactly what we would do to it in the future, He knew how messy we would get, and many of us would care less for many of His gorgeous creations. But yet, He did not refrain Himself for doing it any way, and He still does, He still creates to this day, to this very second. Let's think about for a minute. From now on, when we ask ourselves "why do I keep doing this? When can I enjoy the privilege of having my house organized for at least one day?" think about this, God is constantly creating good air so we can breathe, right? If he did think like us, you know what He would say? He would say "I'm so tired to create clean air all the time for these messy children, they just keep sending that junk in the air all the time with their pollution. I'm just going to quit all together, I'm done doing that. Why should I keep creating clean air for them to breathe if they are going to keep throwing more and more pollution out again" Can you imagine if the Lord would think like that? Oh boy! We would all be in big trouble. Bless His heart that He does not think like we do. But we can think like him.
For the same reason He is constantly creating for our own good, so should we keep moving forward on doing the same with a cheerful heart and with your head held high for knowing that you are not a talentless being. You have the gift of creation! How wonderful is that?! You can create a whole new environment for your family to enjoy over and over again, and especially when things seems to be upside down in your home. You have the super power to make your child feel better when he gets hurt. You are God like. You are a future Queen! Because you are the daughter of a true King and that makes of you a true princess, and someday, you will have the right to claim the throne that belongs to you so you can rule you very own kingdom, and here on earth, we are all just practicing for when that day comes. And on that day he will gently hold your face and look at you deep into your eyes and say "welcome home Princess! Welcome home!"
