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 for you today is that God's blessings and mercies are 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 you through each season of you life. There is no cost, but many rewards, So let's continue to pray for one another. AND I HOPE YOU DANCE!

I'm Back

Ok, so I'm not so good with keeping up with this lately. So to update, on January 5th I had surgery. I thought for the next two weeks, things were going smooth. I got to the Dr.'s office to find out that the stitches had come out. So, same day, we go back in for more stitches. One week later, I go for another check up. Stitches were dissolving too fast, but everything looked ok. For the next 4 weeks, I was on restricted everything. I could ride in the car, but had to sit once I got to wherever we went. Any time I did go or do anything, I was exhausted by days end. But, I did just as the Dr said, so that I would heal and be able to move on. Fast forward the 4 weeks. Check up time again. Dr said that things didn't look good. At least not how she would have liked. Stitches all came out too soon and healing was very slow. She decided to everything alone and let it heal as it was. But, I'm still on light duty. I can now drive and go for walks, but no lifting more than 15 pounds, no exercising, & resting as much as possible. And that is until the next check up in JUNE!!! I'm really struggling with much of it, just because I feel good. I don't hurt, and I have plenty of energy. But I'm still listening to the Dr. because this too shall pass and I don't want to prolong it any further than it has already gone.

Because of all this, I had to let go of my job at the preschool. But on the bright side, a friend was returning to work after having a baby. Now I get to care for Sweet Josie. She falls in the weight limit and she is as precious as can be. I'm really enjoying my days with her and I'm learning all things happen for a reason.
