Dancing with my precious King
I was dancing with the Lord this morning. An easy, slow rhythm. He looked at me, smiled and twirled me with a
little extra step.
“Let Me lead” he whispered in my
ear. I glanced at him quizzically. “of course” I said. I mean, men always lead when dancing and
surely I trust the Lord to lead me in life.
We danced a few more steps and stopped.
“Let Me lead”. Oh dear, I
thought, I’m not doing well here.
We danced on. … and stopped. “I
will lead”. “I’m so sorry. I will not move my feet until you move
Yours.”
The dance that erupted was more like a ‘swing’ than a ‘waltz’ and much
more fun. I was laughing when I heard
Him say, “That’s what life is like when I lead”.
The Heartbeat
When
John lay against your breast at the supper table, I imagine all he could hear
was your heart beat. That sure and steady
sound enveloping him, keeping him standing beside you through the trial, up the
hill and next to your mother at the foot of the cross while others scattered
and hid.
Your
voice, your heartbeat over mans is what I desire most intently.
“Press in, press in, press in. Lean into my breast as John did and listen to
the heartbeat of One that loves you beyond all measure; beyond all words. For you who come void of need, void of
questions, just to be closer; still you,
my beloveds of all, receive as you seek…the pureness of the river of life
descending from the throne, clear as crystal offering its healing. And in this time of darkness and terror you
will find peace in the arms of One who sees beyond and keeps you untouched in
His arms.”
Endless Love
Swim in the depths
flowing through
the eyes
of He who created
you.
Endless love
Endless peace
Endless Grace
Run to the throne
where wholeness
is found
reaching up to
embrace
all power and
authority
freely given
as you speak
the Name Above all Names
Climb under the
wings
of refuge and
rest
calling on the
Name
you’ve trusted
to answer
to protect
to cling to.
Lay your head
on His breast
hearing the
heartbeat of life.
Listen.
It will guide you
into perfect will
& lead you
down the path
of righteousness.
