Dancing for Joy



Living in the presence of God causes us to dance for joy!  It is easy to lose sight of his presence.  It is easy to wander from his ways (especially on the weekends for me).  It is easy to become blind to his presence as a result of selfishness that we fall victim to if we are left to our own devices.  Fortunately, God is not content leaving us to our own devices.

The more I close the gap between the person I am today and the person God created me to be, the more I will experience his joy.

What is robbing me of my joy?   Good question!  This world is robbing me of my joy.  When I’m all in and completely in tuned to the spiritual world, I am filled with joy!  But then, I have to go out into the world and cross paths with people who do not know God.  The negativity, the selfishness, the stupidity and the fact that so many people are lost, sucks the joy right out of me.  The world needs changing.  The world needs to accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior.

If Christians behaved like Christians, the world would change radically and quickly!

Lord, teach me to see you in everyone I come across.  Teach me to dance for joy!

Amen.
