The Creative Force
We are creative beings. The very force of life itself, the force that sprouts the seeds and grows the flowers is the creative life force, God, Spirit, Love, whatever one chooses to call it. It is up to each of us how we choose to channel this force, the force that is within everything. When our creativity is not loved, not brought into the light, only then can it create negativity and destruction. If there are parts of us that we fear, or we consider bad or wrong or ugly, these parts will hold us back. They are part of us too, and there is no need to be afraid of them. It's when we keep parts of us locked up, repressed, that our creativity becomes stifled, "blocked" as we often say, and the life force cannot flow. Stifling the creative force can lead to addictions and depression. The force of life itself is powerful beyond measure and wants expression! Look at the state of our world these days! Is this not an example of what can happen when the creative force is misused, channeled for fear instead of love?I will share a passage from my journal, written after a particularly liberating session last year with a therapist:
Talking about the creative force..." I am afraid that I will use this power, this tool, inappropriately. I feel the huge responsibility of it. And this responsibility is not just my own, it's the responsibility of the entire human race. I feel the gravity of that. I want to channel this creative life force positively. I don't want to stifle it anymore. I don't want to be afraid of this power, this infinite potential, of Love and Creation itself. I want to ask Spirit to please use me as a positive channel for the creative force. This power is MASSIVE, limitless. Let me not squander it. Show me. Use me. Guide me."
Perhaps we can all choose today to express our creativity and channel the creative force as LOVE. We only need become willing to be used, to be open..... Spirit will do the rest.
