Guidance

When I meditated on the word guidance, I kept seeing “dance” at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God’s will is a lot like dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn’t flow with the music and nothing is quite comfortable.

When one person relaxes and lets the other lead, both bodies 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 two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender, willingness and attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and skill from the other.

My eyes drew back to the word guidance. When I saw “G”, I thought of God, followed by “u” and “i” — God, “u” and “I’ dance. God, you, and I dance. This statement is what guidance means to me. As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust that I would get guidance about my life.

Once again, I became willing to let God lead.

One should discharge one’s duties to the best of one’s abilities and surrender and relax and enjoy, without any anxieties, fears and worries about anything whatsoever.
