The Dance

So...nothing really that interesting happened today. I did however find a quote that I really enjoyed.

"I want to close my eyes and throw back my head with laughter, as I step up to dance with You. My tiny hand in Your infinite one. My steps clumsy compared to Your grace. The music begins, we step onto the floor. My grip tightens, knowing I'll fall, but also knowing You'll guide me. The music swells, roaring in my ears until I'm so enraptured that I can't look at anyone but You. My hands and feet poised for the next step, my head up, a smile of love on my face and my eyes locked with Yours. And then, just maybe then, I won't even notice when you turn to one of Your sons and invite him to dance with me."

Of course, that's for a girl. Let's see if I can't adjust it for a guy.

"I hear the music and see you step up to dance. You are my Father, my hand is small compared to yours. I'm not as graceful as you are. But you are teaching me. As the song begins You start Your dance. I am so nervous as I watch. You are so graceful and caring. You have one of Your daughters, and she's beautiful. They are all beautiful. The music begins to soar and my eyes must be fixed on You, for I am still learning, still watching. I want to dance, but I am so afraid. You are so loving, how can I ever compare to You? I can't. But, if I remain faithful to You, and listen when you teach me...I'll be ready when You call me, Your son, to dance with one of Your daughters."

There, not too bad for a slow night. May God keep you this and every night.
