DANCING WITH GOD

My daughter was given this mediation by a young man in her Christian singles' group.

God's heart desire is that Believers be one with Him (John 17).

“ 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," and “dance" are in the word “guidance.” God, you and I dance. As I lowered my head in prayer, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about my life. Once again, I became willing to let God lead.”

May you abide in God as God abides in you. The Song of Solomon 1:4 completes this meditation with “Draw me, we will run after You.” Let us dance before the Lord in gladness with praise and thanksgiving to Him. He will then draw us after Him to walk in all of His wonderful ways. He desires that believers become “one” with Him to extend His kingdom and to be able to bless believers with all that belongs to Him. God is such a "giver." Dance together with God, but always let Him lead. Trust God to lead and to guide you through each season of your life.
