Dancing

You have turned for me my mourning into dancing; you have loosed my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness, that my glory may sing your praise and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks to you forever! (Psalm 30:11,12 ESV)

Dancing

I bear grudges.  I remember hurts.  I nurture anger.  I am uncomfortably comfortable with my lack of forgiveness.

And as I wallow in that mud, I realize that I am pretty entrenched.

It is a horrible habit.  And like all habits it is difficult to break.

But asking God’s help gives hope.

I will no longer mourn my lack of forgiveness.  I will no longer wear shameful sackcloth of grudges.  I will dance in gratitude to the God who changes my heart.

May that dancing day come soon!
