Whenever I wonder about fresh ideas, or doubt whether a solution to a problem can be found, it’s helps me to remember the first two verses of the Bible:

In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters (Genesis 1:1&2).

It also helps me to remember that the Holy Spirit remains awake and present in the lives of Christ-followers today. Don’t forget the truths Paul wrote to the young pastor, Titus:

But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior (Titus 3:4-6).

The Spirit of God that once hovered over the waters bringing order out of chaos, continues to hover in our hearts. Perhaps the inspiration we crave, inspiration unlike any in this world, is only a prayer and a listening heart away?
