God’s act of creating all that is, God’s act of entering our lives in the person of Jesus, God’s everyday act of creating new life — all these are acts of bringing that which is not into being — all acts of originality. To create is to assert ourselves in a way that is risky, that invites stepping into the unknown. Throughout the biblical text we hear story after story of God’s people taking risk all while depending upon God every step of the way.

How can you hear these stories to help you to risk what God has given you to expand love and grace in the world?
