Dance Instructor

King David danced in wild abandon for the Lord. 2 Samuel 6:20-22 It embarrassed his wife, Michal. Her embarrassment and her chiding of David ticked him off something fierce ... "And Michal, daughter of Saul, had no children to the day of her death."

But the point of my post is this ... In matters of worship style, why are we embarrassed for others? ... or is it that we are embarrassed by others? ... it's not about us! David was saying "I" will celebrate before the Lord.

What brought this to my mind was the invitation (or directive) from my 3 year old grandson ... "Papa, come help me dance!"

And I did dance with him in what passes for wild abandon for a 62 year old grandfather. I think we might have been dancing to "My Hope Is Built on Nothing Less" ... it mattered not, he was in the Spirit.

I found this to be very instructive ... not the dance steps, but the heart with which he expressed his love for what was going on inside himself. I was not the least embarrassed for him or by him. That seems right ...

Thanks for the instruction grandson.
