Declaring and sharing is creative action!

Genesis 2:19 – And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the air, and He brought them to the man to see what he would name each one. And whatever the man called each living creature, that was its name. 

When we give something a name, when we make a call, state an opinion or assertion – we are involved in the revelation and unfolding of creation! It’s like opening up a package – we have a part in bringing it into the world. This is how we are creative.

Our Maker is interested in that. Just like God brought the animals He had made to the man to see what he would name each one, He is interested in what we say and do too! It’s not that the Creator isn’t creative enough to think of a name his masterful works. He could have done that on His own without us. It’s that He wants us to participate in it – in revealing it, in acknowledging it and coming up with ways to share it! When we choose something, or name something, we are participating in it’s special uniqueness.

Think of something worth sharing from the past two months of your life and name it! Share it with us here. Describe it, name it, declare it, share it! Maybe it was something you did, something you saw, something said or heard, something you made or somewhere you went. The important part of this post is that you make the judgement about it, that you choose something good, and that you don’t keep it to yourself!
