Is it a waste to CREATE?

When fearing that your new venture will be a failure, you ask yourself,

"What if it's not worth it? What if all that time and energy comes to nothing?"

When these thoughts were taking space in my head-

God whispered to me "Is it ever a waste to create?"

To put your hands at work tending to the lands, a sense of pride in the hard work of simply trying.

To shape that loaf of bread, adding new skills to your toolbelt.

To capture a moment with camera, brush, or possibly a sewing needle, all that intention without any rush.

To simply create, standing up and pushing personal comforts in pursuit of something new is a triumph.

God creates with purpose, and intentional pursuit.

So, really, is it EVER a waste to create? I don't think so.

Sometimes the biggest reward is already won before we ever know the results.

"From the fruit of his mouth a man is satisfied with good, and the work of a man's hand comes back to him." Proverbs 12:14
