I have talked about how the Lord is always reaching out towards man. This picture came into my mind of how God approaches each of us with an outstretched arm, music playing and says "Let's dance". Then that song by Anne Murray also came to mind. She ask's in her song, "can I have this dance for the rest of my life". Sounds like something Jesus would say, or "come let us dance"! Then it just seemed to me that dancing speaks of celebration. Especially at wedding celebrations! Could this be a way of God inviting us to a wedding?! Hmmm. And when the Lord does offer His hand and asks me to dance, will I hesitate? Will I politely decline? Will shame force His hand away? Or will I dance before the Lord with all my might as David did?! Perhaps this is a personal word for me, or a word worthy of sharing. Anyone else want to dance with Lord? I'll let you cut in! TR I love Anne Murray’s songs! Yes, “Can I have this dance for the rest of my life” also my favorite ... “You needed me”. Boy I feel like I’m going down memory lane! As far as dancing though ... um ... you got me worried because I don’t know how to dance. I've always enjoyed roller skating, not roller blading. I went last year as a matter of fact. I also enjoy dancing! When I was growing up skating and dancing were nearly a prerequisite of social advancement and dating! An avenue for us peacocks to impress pea hens. Dancing in general does speak of celebration as well as an opportunity for bonding. But I use the term dancing in the loosest sense of getting acquainted. Personal dancing, being one on one, sharing secrets and speaking with our eyes words of love. Intimate moments of sharing. Can't ya just see me skating in my Chuppah with Jesus! TR Definitely looking forward to and hoping for a more graceful glorified body that will be able to dance in praise and worship to God. Not exactly coordinated in this current shell... I use to love roller skating!!! Wouldn't dare attempt it now... would end up on my bum in no time flat! :mdrmdr: Gracefulness is certainly not my middle name, when cut up with the grandkids, my kiddos begged me to stop before I break something, someone, or myself! Yep I am looking forward to perfected, imperishable and immortal body. :yahoo: :prayer-hands: Lol! Too funny but I know what you two mean! Tammie, your comment reminded me of when I was a kid and I saw my grandfather getting all excited about something and I kept expecting him to break! :mdrmdr:
Perhaps the angels will be teaching ballroom dance 101 classes prior to the wedding banquet? I believe the wedding ceremony is in heaven but the banquet celebration/feast is on the earth before the millennium period begins ... so there will be plenty of time to learn while we wait for the tribulation to end. Or I wonder if ... we can roller skate in the banquet hall? I feel more confident on roller skates than trying to do a waltz dance move. B-)
