Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.” – Zechariah 4:10 (NLT)

Every creative journey starts with humble beginnings. The great masters of art, music, and design all began as amateurs, learning, making mistakes, and growing with each new attempt. In God’s eyes, there’s beauty in the process, and He celebrates each step we take, no matter how small. Embracing our journey means accepting that creativity is as much about learning as it is about creating.

God reminds us that He rejoices in our small beginnings, encouraging us not to rush the process. Each time we pick up a paintbrush, a pen, or any creative tool, we are taking part in something meaningful. Creativity is a journey, and every step we take honors the gifts He has given us.

How can you honor your creative journey, embracing each step—even the early, uncertain ones—as part of God’s plan?
