The wisdom of God is shown in that He left the world unfinished to
that we might have the interest and delight in taking the “raw material”
and putting the world together.
He left the oil in the trap rock, the aluminum in the clay, the paper
in the pulp, the electricity in the clouds. He left the forest
unfilled, the mountains unsurveyed, the canals undug, the tunnels
unbored. He left the fields unplowed and unplanted. He left the music
unwritten, the poetry undreamed and the dramas unplayed. He left
inventions unapplied and cities unbuilt.
He left mind and character unperfected, that we might really be the
children of God- created in His own image- with latent powers to take
the “raw material” and put the world together.
Be creative! Be innovative! Creativity flowers when the feelings of
the heart are touched and expressed naturally. There is nothing to hide.
Creativity is not doing different things instead doing things
differently. We often think in the same pattern and live with the same
habits and circumstances. Often not ready to change the situations or
not ready to take the risk that would require facing the challenges.
When you respond to the same old situations you will certainly get the
same old results. That does not need any creativity and innovation. All
what it brings is nothing other than monotony and lethargic feeling to
one’s life. So think differently and positively to make some kind of
different result in one’s own life and to the society at large. If you
are creative you can find a solution for every weakness you have and
every strength you cherish it as the flower of life.
It is pretty difficult for us to get into innovation and creativity.
We are not used to it that we try to kill our creativity and innovation
at the conception itself. People who think differently are insane for
the society. Still I would say it is worth unearthing the hidden
treasures that God has invested in you to make the world a better place.
So if you are convinced that you have something within you, go ahead
fearlessly and bring it out.
Be creative! Be innovative! Be productive! Be useful!
