Small words. Big meaning.

This is a text message I received last night. It was super encouraging, and so I thought I would share it with you.

"I know you don't always feel like that leader you know you're supposed to be. But once upon a time you didn'tknow how to dance either. Now the holy ghost falls when your bare feet hit the floor." - Anonymous

This made some stuff click for me. Dancing isn't about the technique, it's about the worship. The text doesn't say that I once didnt know how to dance, but now I can execute every movement with excellence. Once I didn't know how to dance.... And now they say my dancing ushers in the presence of God. That is a recognized form of worship and praise.... and God inhabits the praises of his people. At one time I didnt know the importance and purpose of my dance. Now I understand.
Right now, I still stumble through leadership. I try to get things right, and I make them worse. But leadership is also a praise to our God. And one day, it will click.
