Do you ever think of creativity as a spiritual practice?

In many traditions, creativity is seen as a divine gift, a spark of the infinite within us.

The Bible, for instance, starts with creation itself: "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." (Genesis 1:1). This act of creation wasn’t just about bringing the world into existence; it was an expression of divine creativity—a force that we, as humans, inherit.

Engaging in creative activities—whether it’s writing, painting, dancing, or even gardening—can be a form of spiritual practice.

It allows us to connect with something greater than ourselves, to tap into the wellspring of inspiration that flows from the divine. This connection nurtures our soul, leading to spiritual growth.
