Incarnation and creativity

Here's a quote from Signs of Emergence by Kester Brewin (rather apt at this Christmas period ):

…like Mary, (we) need to become wombs of the divine, allowing God to fertilize our creativity and give birth to newness. (p 67)

God desires to do something new, ... over 2000 years ago that desire got fleshed out in the belly of Mary and the birth of Jesus, the Christ. Today God continues to yearn for newness... as we allow God to inspire us with creativity He will lead us into a relevant way for post-modern 21 century pilgrims, who seek to be true to God and their culture.

The incarnation is a wonderful act of God becoming one of us, entering into this world and transforming it from the inside...showing us the Way of love, peace and grace.

May God guide us as we evolve into something new and beautiful and creative!!!
