Every creative knows the tension between vision and hesitation—the gap between what we dream of making and the fear that holds us back. The disciples felt this too. After Jesus ascended, they were left staring at the sky, uncertain of what came next. But then came the promise: the Holy Spirit would fill them with power, sending them into the world with confidence.
That same Spirit is in us. What if we created—not from insecurity, but from boldness? What if we trusted that the One who breathed galaxies into existence is still breathing through us?

Every artist understands the longing for renewal—the drive to transform something broken into something beautiful. In Revelation, we see the ultimate expression of this: God Himself making all things new. This is not just a fresh coat of paint on a worn-out world, but a complete restoration, where pain and loss are erased, and beauty and life reign. As creatives, we reflect this divine renewal in our work, reshaping ideas, repurposing materials, and envisioning what could be. How does this promise of renewal shape the way we create, live, and hope?

There is something special, yet overlooked about creation. Whether it be the Creator himself, his creation, or being immersed in the act of creativity we cannot escape it's all-consuming importance. There was something special about the makers. Something holy, wonderful, and heavy. So much so that God put his Spirit on the creators after his prophets. Second ain't bad for an artist! Do we take this gift for granted? What might it look like for us to live with the intentionality to receive the Holy Spirit and allow Him to guide our creating, our work, and our worship?

What is the vision that drives your life and the things you create? How do you see and treat yourself, clients, coworkers, friends and enemies? It is easy to lose the core vision of God's creation. The good news is that he hasn't and he invites us to come, see, and make it our life's work.

What are the guiding principles of your life? Maybe it's easier to think about this from a project standpoint. What's the deadline, budget, and deliverables? Certain colors, typefaces, and styles might be off the table to start. These are often the most productive projects. One's that have discovered early what must be included and what must be excluded. Paradoxically, there is true freedom in restriction, when the rules/principles have correctly identified. What rules guide your life? Where do they come from?

Why did God rest after creating? The Creator was neither limited by time nor drained by effort, yet chose to rest. Why? Genesis 2:1-4 tells us that after completing His creative work, God rested, blessed the seventh day, and made it holy. This act wasn’t about recovery; it was about setting an example and establishing principles that are vital to our lives. It teaches us that rest is a culmination of creation, a model of sacred rhythms, an act of renewal, and a demonstration of trust.

Why did God create? Why do we? Before creation, there was chaos. Darkness covered the deep, and the Spirit of God hovered over the waters. From this vast emptiness, God began to create—bringing light, form, and purpose to what had been formless and void. God’s first identity revealed in Scripture is as Creator, and in His image, we too are makers.
But, creation often starts with chaos or nothing at all. All possibilities are on the table. Things could go wonderfully, or they could go awfully—and often, both happen. So why did God create, knowing the risks? Why do we step into the unknown and create? Let’s explore how God’s creative process speaks to our own journeys as disciples and creatives.
