Trust the Creativity within You-Then Get Out of Its Way
"[This] is the invitation of the inner creative spirit: you are created to create. The creative potential within you is one of the things that makes you 'in the image and likeness of God.' Whether your medium be music, watercolors, clay, gardening, woodworking, writing, cooking, dance or voice, the Creator has gifted you with creativity. Your gift in return is to use it."

Whether you're a novice or expert; young adult, middle age or golden age; you will be challenged by this invigorating call to set free your creative potential.
