God made humankind "in his image" the Bible says. What is God's image? Love, of course, but a characteristic less talked about is creating. Not creative just in the sense of being artistic --- but creating as opposed to consuming. This is something to deeply consider in America as we are a consumeristic society. We buy, consume, repeat, buy, consume, repeat. What if we tried to create more of our own solutions? And not only just when it comes to shopping at stores --- consuming is also the common mindset when it comes to joining groups or finding a job --- what if we think more about starting vs. joining. This is God's image! A recent article by Donald Miller article, "Why Creators Are Happier than Consumers" has deeply moved me to think about this concept and I hope you have a chance to think about this too. Create > consume.
