Creative Best

Galations 6:4-5 (The Message)
Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that. Don't be impressed with yourself. Don't compare yourself with others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.

Think about the kind of responsibilities and obligations you have in relationships, school, work, sports and just life in general. We all have a chance to give those things our best. Sometimes it's hard not to compare and evaluate who we are and what we do by the world's standard or the standards of our peers. In the end, God's opinion is the only one that matters. He wants you to push yourself, to dive into whatever challenge has been given to you, and to not just give your best, but your creative best. He wants you to be you. To use your unique gifts and talents to bring Him glory. Next time you are faced with something that may not seem too exciting or worthwhile, remind yourself that God wants you to do your creative, unique best in everything. Take up that responsibility and that challenge and run with it!

In His Love,
