This morning I had the privilege of presenting the Chick-fil-A Corporate devotional to their headquarters staff. As I shared a few melodies and visuals from “December Peace,” my central theme was to each ask ourselves the question, “How can I be more of a creator than a consumer this holiday season?” We all have some gift, talent, or passion that can be a blessing to others . . . baking a dessert, painting a picture, building something out of wood, or countless other possibilities. When we nurture our creativity it feeds our soul and overflows from our heart to make a positive difference in the lives of others.
Regardless of the time of year, how you can you be more of a creator than a consumer? Does this idea stir your heart like it does mine?
How does a chemist/financial planner come to master this musical creativity? And it is all to God’s glory. I have been searching for my calling in life my entire 62 years, yes I have some god given gifts none good enough to devote my all to. Sometimes I fear I will figure it all out when it is too late to do anything about it. Does that even make any sense? I just love too many things and I can’t master them all.
