Are You Dancing?

God’s story intersecting our story is good news and yet it is just the gate, the beginning of a trail of the journey that lies before us. God rains down three blessings on humans; to feed them like the birds, to dress them like the flowers, and to come along side them as a confidant. Sadly, too many of us take the first two blessings and ignore the last.

Yet at some point on our journey God intersects our lives in big ways giving us insight and helping us to see that life, the one and only life that we live, is constructed to squeeze us into associating with the Creator of the universe. It is almost like the birth process complete with labor pains, sweat, tears, bloody hands, thorny landscape, moments of painful loneliness and questioning, moments filled with heartache and desire. All this leads us to God! Life is the ultimate dance we do. Not so much the living as it is the realizing that it isn’t about us but about God intersecting our lives. So life becomes a dance towards God.
