The will to receive is set in the emanated being only through its awakening to receive of its own accord (Baal HaSulam, The Study of the Ten Sefirot, Part 1, “Inner Observation,” Chapter 6, Item 24).

Question: Is creation the emanated being that has its own personal will to receive?

Answer: Not only to receive, but even to become similar to the Creator. This is why, desire goes through four phases of development, and it is in the last phase that it develops a free personal desire to become similar to the Creator. Before that, it is not yet considered a creation because it goes through involuntary stages of development.
