“When one meditates on the word GUIDANCE, you will see ‘Dance’ at the end of the word. Doing God’s will is a lot like dancing. When both partners try to lead, nothing feels right, The movement doesn’t flow with the music and everything is quite uncomfortable. When one person finally accepts this and allows the other to lead, both them begin to flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back or by pressing lightly in one direction or another. It’s as if the two then become one, moving perfectly together. The dance takes surrender, willingness,and attentiveness from one; and gentle leading and skill from the other. If the ‘G’ in guidance stands for God, one might interpret the word as God U and I dance. If you will dance together with God and be willing to let Him be the lead, your life will be full in every season of you life.”   -Howard Troxler
