The Perfect Blend of Creativity and Orderliness

God recorded His word through the pens of inspired men chiefly for one reason to tell us about Himself. In the first sweeps of ink, he demonstrated something vastly important among He attributes. He is CREATIVE. Scarcely before the ink could dry in the first sentence, god revealed something else He is ORDERLY.

Only God could combine wholly creative a completely orderly. Some of us are refreshingly creative and orders, thankfully, are orderly but often we can hardly abide one another. If wisdom prevails, however, we eventually discover we need one another, or our different contributions are unbalanced and lacking.

              God on the other hand, needed no one to complete Him. He created the heavens ad the earth simply because He wanted to. Afterwards He looked on his perfect blend of creativity and orderliness and said, “This is good very good in fact” God still consider a blend of creativity and order an effective way of working with us. If you are His child, God is working in your life, in both creative and orderly ways. He desires to be entirely creative with you. Do you allow Him the freedom?

              What God is doing in your life right now may not make sense to you, but it’s not because. He’s nonsensical. It’s because He’s creative. God ants us to surrender to his will, but w e tend to want a blueprint of his plans so we can decide whether or not to surrender. In John 1:21, after Christ gave peter, a glimpse of his future, Peter asked a question splitting at the seams with human nature. “Lord what about him?” Like us, Peter derived a strange sense of security from sameness. As you search for your calling, do you attempt to find someone He is using in the same way? Stop1 of six billion people on the planet, that person may not exist because God is creative.

              Some can easily relate to the variety in God’s plan. We thrive on creativity. Sameness bores us, but we still need the dependable security God offers. Creativity by itself creates only life. That’s why it’s so important to meet with Him you guessed it day by day.

              Had you been a spectator during only the first three days of creation you might not had judged it as good. What good seed-bearing plants with no sun for photosynthesis? In His wisdom, God knew the work was good because He know what was coming next. He knows what’s coming next for you. That’s why He can judge His week in you as good. Give God room to be completely creative. Meet with Him daily as He unfolds plan in perfect order. He’s really good at what He does.

              Take a few moments to think of reasons to praise our creative and orderly God. Then lift those praises to Him in an attitude of thanksgiving.
