Dancing With God
(author unknown)
When I meditated on the word Guidance, I kept seeing "dance" at the end
of the word. I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like
dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The
movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and
jerky.
When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to
flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the
back or by pressing Lightly in one direction or another.
It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes
surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance
and skill from the other.
My eyes drew back to the word Guidance. When I saw "G: I thought of
God, followed by "u" and "i".
"God, "u" and "i" dance."
God, you, and I dance.
As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about
my life. Once again, I became willing to let God lead.
My prayer for you today is that God's blessings and mercies be upon you on this
day and everyday. May you abide in God as God abides in you. Dance
together with God, trusting God to lead and to guide you through each season of
your life.
This prayer is powerful and there is nothing attached. If God has done
anything for you in your life, please share this message with someone else, for
prayer is one of the best gifts we can receive.
There is no cost but a lot of rewards; so let's continue to pray for one
another.
And I Hope You Dance!
