Today is Ash Wednesday marking the beginning of Lent. This is a time for, among other things, more intense prayer. In light of that, here's a creativity prayer I wrote last year. Invest a few moments today to ask for a potentially new source of help for your creativity to enliven and inspire others.
Lord,
Thank you for creation itself and the incredible gifts and talents you so generously entrust to me. May I appreciate and develop these talents, always recognizing that they come from you and remain yours.
Guide me in using them for the benefit of everyone that I touch, so that they may be more aware of your creative presence and develop the creativity entrusted to them for the good of others.
Help me also to use your talents to bring a creative spark and new possibilities to your world, living out my call to be an integral part of your creative force. Amen.

Thank you for your comment on my blog. I really like that prayer. We always must remember that these talents aren't our own but God's and they are for His purpose.
Hey Mike - okay if we post the prayer on www.creativityday.org for celebrants of World Creativity and Innovation Week April 15 - 21?
Thanks
Marci
