Dance like No One is Watching

PS. Scroll down to see the opportunities to grow in faith and grow together with each other below!

There is nothing quite like watching someone who is living out their life like no one is watching. You know, the person driving down the freeway, listening to their jam on the radio. They are singing their hearts out, as loud as they possibly can, with as much emotion as they can muster like no one is listening. They don’t care about whether they are on-key or off-key. They don’t care if they are too loud. They love the music; they love to sing at least as long as no one is looking. They are so free! There is no fear! Don’t you want to be that guy? Don’t you want to be that girl? Singing with your own style, your own voice, your own emotion. Imagine for just a moment how you might sing if no one was listening.

There is nothing quite like watching someone dance like no one is dancing. Their moves might be fluid, or they might be awkward. They might match the beat or be way off. But they are having a blast! They are so free. They are dancing like they are the only ones in the grocery store, dancing like they are the only ones in the house. They might never dance at a wedding, but when no one is watching, they’ll dance their legs off. Don’t you ever want to be that guy? Don’t you ever want to be that girl? Dancing with your own moves, your own freedom, your own joy. Excited like David was when he brought the ark of the covenant to his hometown, he couldn’t help but dance. Imagine for just a moment how you might dance or how you might sing if no one was looking.

Maybe singing and dancing isn’t your thing. But each of you has a personality, each of you has gifts, and each of you is created by God and wired by him to do certain things with passion, excitement, and freedom. Don’t you ever wish and long for the freedom to do what you do with no one holding you back?

How would you live if it was just you and God in the world, no one else? How would you sing? How would you worship? How would you pray? How would you serve? What would you do? It’s a whole new way of living, isn’t it? It’s a whole new way of worshipping. It’s a whole new way of praying. It’s a whole new way of singing. It’s a whole new way of serving.

We want to follow our God that way this year. We want to serve him that way this year. Let’s get started in worship.
