Dancing With God
A meditation on Guidance
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
