Thankful Thursday

"Dancing with the feet is one thing, dancing with the heart is another." Annoymous

There's freedom in dance....a lightness that comes from letting go and surrendering to the beat of the music. And for me, it's the same deal with dancing  from the heart. Grateful for....

-the music that sings inside my head.Even in the yuck times, it's there, playing it's familiar tune, 'everything will work out awesome.'
-Smiles from a stranger....in that brief moment, the song inside plays happier. 
- Hope....it's always there....whispering, 'trust, don't be afraid.....
-Joy that tickles my soul...a reminder that life is to be lived not  endured.
-And mostly that He's taught me and continues to teach me the right dance steps...the freedom dance....the one that comes from trusting myself to the music. Letting go, being kind, forgiving others, not holding grudges, accepting the song. It's following His lead. That's where the happy dance really takes place. 

Happy Thursday, Guys. Have a good one.

Dropping by to wish you a Happy Love day! Praying you'll always be strong in His power. Isn't it true when we have His gift of joy. .. just want you to move those feet in joyful celebration no matter what's going on in this place? What beautiful dances orchestrated by the Master choreographer! Knowing that He will be there in every step
until this dance is over. Take care sister.

Cute picture, Nikki. Some people think life is a dance. For those of us who know the Lord, it is, if we allow the Bridegroom to lead. Thanks for sharing and enjoy your weekend.

Blessings,
Sandi

Though my heart has not been dancing lately, I can still hear the refrain...It is well with my soul.

GOD BLESS!
