Take the shackles off my feet and I will dance! I will dance I will sing, I’ll be mad before my king, nothing Lord is hindering this passion in my soul!
This is what God impressed upon my heart during my quiet time yesterday…
I want to dance with you! I feel like twirling you and watching you laugh. I love it when your face lights up with glee. You are free, let the chains fall off your ankles and wrists. Dance! Revel in this new found freedom! You are not bound any longer by the expectations of others, you are freed from believing the lie that it is your job to make others happy. I free you from thinking that you have to do everything perfectly. I free you from others opinions. You are accepted and favored. My delight is in you! Join me in the dance. It’s a choice each day, you can sit and be a wall flower or you can believe that you are my favored partner and waltz out onto the floor with confidence. All you need to do is follow, surrender to my lead and flow with my spirit. There is no resistance when your will melts into mine. It’s beautiful art, others stand back and gaze at the graceful flow and beauty of our dance. You can invite others into this celebration. No cover charge, it has been paid in full! No dance will look the same. You will never tire of me as your partner. I can captivate you for always. Look into my eyes, melt into my gaze. Dance knowing you are enveloped by my love.
As I thought about what the Lord showed me, I envisioned a lively dance where I was able to grab others hands and sweep them up and into the dance! There was so much joy, it was like a wedding reception with all my loved ones, only this one didn't end! Everyone was there! I guess thats my prayer and dream that all of my family & friends and the world would know the Lord of the dance and have a relationship with him! Following Jesus is sweet sweet joy... This easter know that he loves you! He is inviting you to celebrate a life with him! There is nothing on this earth that can beat that, of that I am convinced!
This is holy time, we gather together to worship you and love one another, and as we laugh, and as we sing, and as we dance and as we dream, O Lord I beg of you just this one thing... won't you dance with me throughout the heavens and below the seas, up on the mountain tops, roll with the breeze come carry me, Lord won't you dance with me!
love, faith & joy,
