Dancing

Ps 149:3 Let them praise His name with the dance.

Due to the amazing amounts of people falling in love and having weddings lately, there has been a large number of opportunities to dance. Due to me being single and 22, there has been a large number of opportunites to be forced to dance with my sister.
Honestly, its not bad dancing with my sister, I am comfortable with her, and I can just have fun with her without worrying about anything. The problem with dancing with Sierra is that she refuses to be led. Our amazing moves that we can do never work because she is always trying to lead me into moves instead of me leading. She really doesn't get the idea of dancing. If she would just follow, we'd be really good, instead we usually end up on the floor in a awkward position. Then its uncomfortable to be dancing with your sister.
Sometimes I think the Lord and I are similar to this. I dance with Him, am in a romantic journey with Him, and am happy to be with Him, but I often would often rather lead instead of let Him guide me into each step. Its a little easier on my mind to plan out our dance then just let Him lead, but if you saw me and Sierra on the floor last week then you know how you end up when the wrong person tries to lead. Sierra and I could be so much greater, maybe professionals if she would just follow me into the brilliant and beautiful dance skills that I own. Also, my walk might be a little easier, a little more free, and little more fun, and a little more productive if I would just let my Father lead me. He knows how to dance even better than I do.
