Let God lead . . . and be sure to follow!

In light of the “dance”,  just picture for a moment what it looks like if the lead partner takes the lead and the other partner does not follow…..we have a partnership and most incredible Leader of all leaders who wants to lead.  I trust that one of  your goals on this journey is to learn how to follow!

Catherine gave us such tangible ways this week to follow the heart of God –as broken, winsome, faithful, discerning and passionate!  I prayed this week: 

*that you stepped through, rather than stopped short at the threshold, into the sacred place and let your heart be broken with the same things that break God’s heart! 

*that you saw the way God wants to allure you and wants so badly not to be forgotten – He longs to “betroth you to Himself forever!” 

*that you saw God’s faithfulness and also the dichotomy of yours and His, causing you to turn from your “raisin cakes” to Him alone! 

*that you are beginning to see things as God sees them as you draw near to Him, and really get to know Him! 

*that you saw God’s passion for you, His dear precious child, and were moved to share Him with those around you! 

I prayed for every one of you by name this week that you would not let this time set aside slip by, but rather would take this opportunity to BE STILL.  Go against what is natural and “pause” on purpose in this busy crazy life – for that is the only way you will learn  how to follow! 

In this third week, we turn to Moses and explore what it means to be “face to face” with God!  If you are behind, you can choose to continue where you are, or jump ahead to week 3 and study Moses along with us beginning tomorrow!

With arm in arm, eyes toward Him, feet following every step…………enjoy the “dance”! 

Following the Leader,
