Who is your Lord of the Dance?

good morning everyone!!!!! I hope this is a great thanksgiving week for each and everyone of you!! This is a time to give thanks, not just for what we have, but also what we have not!!! Something we all do have is the Lord!!! I thank God for you all many times!!! YOU help keep me in the word and staying on track with the only one and true LIVING GOD!!!
It is easy to be derailed as we make our tracks through life. Deuteronomy 7:19 "Keeping the commandment of God is what matters." The old testament had a lot of rules and regs to follow, glad we don't have those now. The new testament we are to receiv Jesus Christ in our heart, and once we turn our life over to Christ, He will give us the desire to obey Hime, follow His commandments, and become more Christ like. One of my favorite hymns is a 19 century Shaker tune called Lord of the Dance. Please endulge me and think about the words. LORD OF THE DANCE I danced in the morning when the world was begun, and I danced in the moon and the stars and the sun, and I came down from heaven and I danced on the earth. At Bethelehem I had my birth.
I danced for the scribe and the Pharisee, but they would not dance and they would not folow me; I danced for the fishermen, for James and John; they came to me and the dance went on.
I danced on the sabbath when I cured the lame, the holy people said it was a shame; they whipped and they stripped and they hung me high; and they left me there on a cross to die.
I danced on a Friday and the sky turned black; it's hard to dance with the devil on your back; they buried my body and they thought I'd gone, but I am the dance and I STILL GO ON.
They cut me down and I leapt up high, I am the life that'll never, never die; I'll live in you if you'll live in me; I am the Lord of the Dance, said he.
the chorus: DANCE, THEN, WHEREVER YOU MAY BE; I AM THE LORD OF THE DANCE, SAID HE. AND I'LL LEAD YOU ALL WHEREVER YOU MAY BE, AND I'LL LEAD YOU ALL IN THE DANCE, SAID HE.
Take time to read this and think about what is being said and by whom!! When my head goes down, I have to remember to look up. Look up my friend, there is a silken lining there somewhere, you just have to look up to seek it.......JESUS CHRIST keeps my lining silken, but I have to look up, fellowship with Him, and keep Him central in my heart.
Be safe this holiday, remember the loved ones you are not able to be with you for one reason or another. Take pride in you Lord.....He is the CURE ALL!!! Love you all. thank you for reading.
In Christ's Love and Grace
