A Happy Dancing

Rhythmical gestures and steps
make for a happy dancing in present days...
either to worship God if the purpose is sacred,
or to worship Satan, if the purpose is wicked..


A genuine, artful and heartfelt dance
is devotion to our true God, who blesses
all dancers performing before His shining throne;
even a danseur or danseuse can never feel alone.


When the absence of light invites darkness to rove,
don't be daunted...dance and be dazzled from above;
God's chosen people became impatient and rough,
and started dancing before the golden, glimmering calf. 


Invite all believers to your dance,
young and old, poor and rich: forget no one in your search;
everyone must share in the glory which enlightens each,
count me in...I'll lift my praying hands!

The art of dance has been practiced, as you indicate, for worship of God or Satan. I remember the scene from the "10 Commandents" when people danced and worshiped the golden calf. I would invite you to join my dance in the light where we could lift our hands in prayer as we worship. Hope you entered this one in the dance contest! Love, Carolyn
