Jesus Dances?
As 13 of us were worshipping the Lord in silence except for background instrumental music, He surprised me with a mental picture of our enjoying a ballroom dance together! Of course, I was overjoyed and prayed in my heart,
"O Lord, You know how much I loved to dance in
my school days and how I long to dance again! Yet, I have little opportunity to dance now because my husband has no affinity for dancing! How You understand my make-up, O Lord, how You love me enough to convey my oneness with You through music and dance! I thank You, my Lord! I love You!"
Meditation:
Psalm 30:11-12
"You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever."
Psalm 149:3-4
"Let them praise His name with dancing and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.
For the Lord takes delight in His people; He crowns the humble with salvation."
