'dance' through 2010


This was forwarded to me and it's pretty awesome. The visual is great and someone at work today reminded me that God loves to see us enjoying life! What a cool thought to see Jesus giving the thumbs up at me just because I'm laughing & having a good time. We don't have to always be serious and trying to 'attain.' After all, who is the one that created enjoyment? yup, that guy.




Dancing with God
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 fo ryou today is that God's blessings
and mercies are upon you on this day and every day.
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.

I hope you dance through 2010!
