Dancing with God

When I meditate on the word Guidance, I see "dance" at the end of the word. I realize 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.

Consider again the word Guidance:

When I see "G" I think of God, followed by "u" and "i."
"God," "u" and "i" dance."
God, you, and I dance.
As I lower my head, I become willing to trust
that I will get guidance about my life.
Once again, I become willing to let God lead.

Let it be our prayer to abide in God as God abides in us. Let's dance together with God, trusting Him to lead and guide through each season of our lives...

...and I Hope You Dance!
