1 - CREATIVITY
It is when we are able to discover our own unique inner creativity and spark...the 'dreams inside' and begin to dance to it that we learn what our purpose is....the gifts we were born to share. It is this that is the 'fire within our soul' which, if we actively practice use of, we become more alive as we are tapping into the divine spark that the Master Potter placed there Himself. Everyone is creative and creativity is not limited to just music or art. It is whatever lights your soul on fire. It could be painting or music for some, but, for others, it could be building or planning, or scientific analysis. However, to discover what your true unique fire is, it's important to become aware of that which makes you feel alive, that which you might call your 'dream', which is bigger than yourself or your next car. For oftentimes, it is easy to fall into a trap of utilizing your dreams and gifts, once you become aware of them, for selfish gain. And it is only when they are turned over to the Dreamgiver, as they were intended to be, that they will turn into something bigger than yourself or anything you could have possibly imagined. Things will happen like magic if you let go. Because if you walk the path of discovering and then SHARING your passion and dreams, the Master Creator will open untold doors for you. Remember His creative example....His masterpiece, all of earth and the heavens and every living creature, was given away.
As part of eARTh CREATIVITY, we will focus on the following key principles:
Discovering INNER CREATIVITY, DREAMS, and GIFTS
- CREATIVITY is the divine spark in all of us
- Finding our DREAMS = GIFTS and God given purpose
- When we CREATE, we are opening up to God moving through us (Artist's are 'channels')
- 'Plugging in' to the CREATIVE SOURCE
- Giving back the DREAM, so it can be bigger than you imagined
- Process, not results
