Putting creative energy to work makes all the difference. I’m on a creative surge at the moment and I can literally feel the energy moving up and down my spine, I feel it flowing through my brain, out of my fingertips as I type this. When we are in those moments we need to know we are divinely guided and it is our duty to follow the passion and drive we feel. Be consistent with it and eventually something will come out of it that is solely ours, our purpose. People don’t need to understand it, hell we don’t even need to understand it in the beginning—we just need to trust and follow that drive. The more we communicate passionately and clearly about what we do and feel, the clearer the vision becomes. Creativity isn’t meant to work for us, we are meant to work with it. This is how goals and dreams come to life. In trust, in flow, and taking divinely guided action in the right time. There are times we think things are going a certain way and suddenly we have it ripped away from us, or less violently, we start to see the holes in what we thought we knew. Sometimes we are ahead of where the people we love are and their fear keeps them stuck—so do we stay stuck with them or do we keep moving ahead, dragging them with? Or do we acknowledge that we are no longer compatible? Or do we have patience and allow them to catch up or find their own paths?
The thing with creative energy is that it shows us where these gaps are—it’s ok to be afraid even if it means possibly losing what we know. As long as we follow the signs, we will get where we need to go. It all makes sense in the end. No, we can’t always bring those we love or all of the things we love with us. Yes, it can be scary to take steps into what we aren’t familiar with. But we have to move beyond being scared because finding our purpose (and fulfilling it because that feels even better). Sometimes those we love won’t understand what we go through. Keep doing it anyway. Those who are meant to be with us, the things we are meant to have, the lessons we need to learn come when we keep moving forward. What we need will always be there and we can never truly lose what is for us. Sometimes we just need a reminder that we are on the right path. Tabitha Brown shared a video yesterday discussing the story of her late mother and the dimes as signs of her mother’s presence after her passing. Tabitha has a moment when she talks about not knowing what she is doing but she is simply choosing to be obedient to God and that is because of the signs. So much of what we do feels strange in the moment. It doesn’t make sense to us and we don’t know whey we do it, but we know it feels good, we know it feels right. Follow that creative energy, apply the gifts we have and we will always end up where we need to be.
