There are so many hidden gems and fascinations in nature.  It is easy to see how creative God is when we look at all the life around us.  The movement, the color, the shape, the depth, the use of space, and the interaction between it all is mesmerizing.  It is almost as though it is engaged in some big cosmic dance.  A dance I was not invited to or my invitation got lost in the mail.  I saw life as me looking at from the outside. I was unclear what the steps were or why my dance card seemed empty.  For things to change, I had to dare to let go of being on the outside in some self-constructed bubble of safety.  I had to be willing to let my curiosity ignite the connection to my heart which would provide the courage to step into the dance. Once there the breadth and depth of my heart showed me the first person on my dance card was me and God.  God invites me to start my days in a dance with the truth of who I am.  God’s invitation does not get lost anymore.  Sometimes I misplaced it or decline the invitation but God is always ready to dance with me.  I get to touch the light of love when I let go of my ideas about how to keep me safe and protected.  I get to laugh, make mistakes, cry, and experience all kinds of energy when I decide I would rather fumble through the steps on the dance floor in God’s world than stay in the rehearsal room trying to get the choreography perfectly.  God just wants us to see for ourselves what we are made of when we use the breath to put heart into our soul and allow our bodies to take the first step.
