When I meditated on the word Guidance, I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word.
I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like dancing.
When two people try to lead, nothing feels right.
The movement doesn't flow with the music, and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky.
When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead, both bodies begin to flow with the music.
One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back or by pressing Lightly in one direction or another.
It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully.
The dance takes surrender, willingness, and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and skill from the other.
My eyes drew back to the word Guidance.
When I saw "G": I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i". "God, "u" and "i" dance." God, you, and I dance.
As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about my life.
Once again, I became willing to let God lead.
My prayer for you today is that God's blessings and mercies are upon you on this day and everyday.
May you abide in God, as God abides in you.
Dance together with God, trusting God to lead and to guide you through each season of your life.

I love this! Do you mind if I use it as well? Did you write it? This was just what I needed to read this morning.
to Lori, yes it would be a compliment for you to use this. No, I did not write it, it was sent to me by my daughter who passed it along to me.
How great a thought is this...right on. Thanks for passing it along.
Brilliant.....absolutely brilliant. Thanks for posting this.
Great analogy. Amazing what we can do and become when we trust in God. I am always in awe at what he does for me.
This is beautiful. It made my day. I love it. Thanks for my devotional for the day. I hope you have a wonderfully peaceful, blessed day at home.
That's lovely - it was a pleasant peaceful moment in a busy crazy day - thank you.
I can't wait to dance with Jesus.
