 I am not a tool. I don't believe God uses us. I believe he partners with us. God is relational, not dictatorial. I believe that in a very real sense God needs us. God needs you. God needs you to create art. God needs you to write. God needs you to make beautiful films and write plays, poetry, paint paintings, take pictures, and anything else that gives your soul hope. I believe that I am enamoring to my creator and captivating to him. He is proud of me and what I create, and he is proud of you as well.
