Dear One,

Listen. Listen to the music. Do you the rhythm and the rhyme of the dance? The melody I chose it just for you. It is OUR SONG. No one else shares this song with Me. They have their own song if they choose to listen.

Our dance began the day you were saved and it will continue through eternity. Close your eyes and listen. Ignore those around you. There is no one here but you and Me. People will always be watching and waiting for you to miss a step – but I don’t care if you do – I am here to hold you up until you can dance on your own. Come...step up on my feet and I will teach you the steps.

I know the Dance is hard to learn. Stay on my feet and let me carry you as you learn. I will dance for both of us. I choose the steps, the pace, tempo I keep time with My eternal purpose for your life.

Keep your eyes on me. Look deeply into my eyes of love. Fix your gaze on me and not your surroundings, circumstances or the people in your world. They can’t show you the steps to Our Dance.

Lay your head on My chest. Can you hear the beating of My heart? It beats to the music and it will keep you in perfect rhythm of Our Dance. You have to listen to my heart or the other songs will confuse you. Listen to the rhythm of my heart until Our hearts beat as one. I know your heart – you want Me – but you are afraid to step up and dance. You are afraid I am going to leave you on the Dance floor, alone, ashamed, humiliated. I will never ever leave you.

Do not let anyone "cut in" on us. Hold on tight and do not let anyone pull you away from my embrace. No one, no matter how much they love you can Dance to Our Song. Do not let anything keep you from the Dance. You cannot schedule a Dance - for the Dance is your entire life. I am your life. You are my life.

At some point during the Dance, while your heart beats like mine and we are in perfect step, your feet will slip off of mine. You will be dancing alone – before me in worship. It will not be an act of defiance and independence but it will be an expression of the freedom you have in Me to worship me uninhibited in pure devotion. I will stand back and watch and enjoy the overflow of Our Dance.

As you dance in my honor – those watching will be overcome by the Love we share. They will want to Dance with Me too. They just never thought they could, but you showed them the way to the Dance. Some who are watching, used to Dance with me but now stand in the shadows – embarrassed to come to Me. They too will see Our Dance and be enticed back into their Dance with Me. They will want to climb up on my feet and learn to Dance anew.

Dance Dear One - Dance with ME -Dance with all your might

Dance with the One you love

Love,

Your Heavenly Father

"And we will dance on the streets that are golden....the glorious Bride and the great Son of Man from every tongue and tribe and nation...we will join in the Song of the Lamb." Revelation

"And David Danced before the Lord with all His might’ 2 Samuel 6:14
