Jesus Dances?

As 13 of us were worshipping the Lord in silence except for background instrumental music, He surprised me with a mental picture of our enjoying a ballroom dance together! Of course, I was overjoyed and prayed in my heart,


"O Lord, You know how much I loved to dance in


my school days and how I long to dance again! Yet, I have little opportunity to dance now because my husband has no affinity for dancing! How You understand my make-up, O Lord, how You love me enough to convey my oneness with You through music and dance! I thank You, my Lord! I love You!"


Meditation: 


Psalm 30:11-12


        "You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing to You and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give you thanks forever."


Psalm 149:3-4


        "Let them praise His name with dancing and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.
        For the Lord takes delight in His people; He crowns the humble with salvation."
