Word of the Day
Beloved, remember how I have wooed you…how I have called you so many times and what I have said to you, “Dance and let Me do the rest while you simply become obedient to the whispers I speak in your ear.”
You are to never, never try and dance the dance someone else is meant to experience. Only I know their steps and only I know yours. I may however at times tell you to observe and learn. This is good. But to dance their dance…Never! You are one of a kind and are called to uniqueness in Me.
Now to the practical and yes, visionary side of dancing with Me. Imagine you are the only one in a dance class. See yourself intently listening to the instructor as you are captivated by his every move. Each movement is being indelibly imprinted into your heart and spirit as your senses escalate with anticipation and excitement. Fear and anticipation compete for your attention but you overcome. And why? Because there is no fear in love (1 John4:18)
Your anticipation overrules your fear and the longing of your heart to move with such grace overwhelms you…pulling…drawing…ahh…yes…how beautiful…how handsome you are My beloved sons and daughters. The crescendo of Heaven is mounting…growing and My sounds are being released for you to hear. Come close…come near…listen ever so carefully…sound is here…the opus of your life is here. Prepare yourself and let go of all offenses…all pain…all unforgiveness and come. My sound is near and My hand is outstretched to pull you into My heart…into My embrace (Psalms 118:16; Psalms 123:2)
Today is your day to embrace grace in a whole new way. I give you grace to dance the dance I have chosen for you.Read Complete Love Letter
There is no fear in love [dread does not exist], but full-grown (complete, perfect) love turns fear out of doors and expels every trace of terror! For fear brings with it the thought of punishment, and [so] he who is afraid has not reached the full maturity of love [is not yet grown into love’s complete perfection]. (1 John 4:18 Amplified)
Prayer
Lord, I so desire for my heart and my soul to receive such a gift from You…such a sound from Heaven. I long for Your love to swell in my heart like an open gate and pour out of my being with rivers of living water. I know I have had questions that seem to have no real practical answers sometimes. I know all things cannot be grasped with the mind but must be absorbed by the spirit within me. Some of Your Word today seems too grand and I can’t wrap my mind around the simplicity of relationship with You. Teach me to glory in the simple ways…in the simple things.
Always remind me of Your truth and how You see me when I am found to be comparing myself with another. Sometimes instead of rejoicing at the uniqueness of another person’s dance I have been known to feel less than and wonder if I will ever be like them. How silly! You never want me to be like them. If I was I would be them, and that just wouldn’t do.
Reflect and Journal
- A move of overt grace, passion and beauty is emerging on the scene of Your life and heart…in your dance with Him. Reflect on His arrival in such a victorious way. What do you think, feel or sense He wishes you to dance to first?
- Reflect on how perfect love casts out fear.
- Have you so admired the dance…the life of another that you find yourself in a place of comparison which causes you to see yourself as less than adequate?
