This morning when I woke up, I felt God ask me,"Remember when you used to dance just for Me?" As He asked that, instead of feeling guilt for forgetting, peace flooded my heart. Every confused thought went silent as I remembered what this life is really all about...and what it's really not about (those treasures that moth and rust will destroy but for some reason we persist in trying to obtain).

Ah Jesus, thank You for the reminder. I love you. I want to dance just for You again.

"Rain turns the sand into mud
Wind turns the trees into bone
Stars turning high up above
You turn me into somebody loved.

Nights when the heat had gone out
We danced together alone
Cold turned our breath into clouds
We never said what we were dreaming of
But you turned me into somebody loved.

Someday when we're old and worn
Like two softened shoes
I will wonder on how I was born
The night I first ran away from you.

Now my feet turn the corner back home
Sun turns the evening to rose
Stars turning high up above
You turn me into somebody loved."
(Somebody Loved, by The Weepies)
