To Depend on Confidently -- REDUX


Quote:  Relying on God has to begin all over again every day as if nothing had yet been done. -- C.S. Lewis

Perspective: I took dance lessons and danced professionally (modern, jazz, tap) from the age of 10 until I was 25 years old.  I remember both loving and dreading dancing. Even though I was attending class 3 times a week, I knew the routines, and I loved learning in the "trade," I had to treat each lesson and performance as if it were new. Yes I did learn a little more everyday and I built more knowledge with each lesson/performance.  But the synergy was different with every lesson and every performance. I didn't want to acknowledge that.  I was irritated when my dance teachers said I needed to rely on my dance partner or the other dancers in the group or the music or something else besides me. I didn't realize I was the Ying; they were the Yang.

Opposites are flip sides of the same coin. Up, down, left, right - they all "need" each other. 

Is God the flip side of me? I think God is more an integral part of me. How do I see that part of me more readily? I recognize I need help from God EVERYDAY. I expect greatness from God EVERYDAY. I show my love and joy for God EVERYDAY. God allows me and blesses me to see the road map of my life EVERYDAY. God please give me the clarity and eagerness to recognize and take advantage of your guidance EVERYDAY.

Call to Action:  Be a car for one day. Are you restarting the engine with a bad carburetor, no spark plugs, or the gas gauge on E?  What do you need to refuel and get your car humming? How many mechanics do you need to fix this car?
