And so we face our greatest foe. The unknown. With shoulders squared toward the Son. We must press on. With love and humility as our weapons, we battle demons from life gone by. Sometimes the hardest thing to do in life is to let go. We must weaken our grip so that he may strengthen His. He allows us that much. That is our dance with Him. We must learn to let Him lead. To be swept away in His full and powerful arms. Shutting our eyes to this world for a time in order to find His. May that dance be the dance of all dances. May nothing come close in comparison. May it defy reason. May it move deeper than deep. May it be more gentle than the softest whisper. May it be higher than the black of night. May it move further than the curving of the earth. May it be more beautiful than a single red rose in a field of pure snow. May love not even understand. May it be simple. May it be powerful. May it be honesty. May it be integrity.

May it delight in its duty. May it harmonize. May it develop. May it protect. May it shelter. May it heal. May it relieve. May it support. May it sacrifice. May it be an act of mutual giving. May it be freedom. May it be release. May it be fulfillment. May it be clear. May it be beyond the reach of the fallen one. May it be resolute. May it be determination. May it be fellowship. May it be holy. May it be truth. May it be exciting. May it be forgiveness. May it be rest. May it be like a breeze across the beach at sunset. May it roll without end. May it refresh. May it praise. May it sing. May it resonate. May it grow. May it stretch. May it carry. May it be sweet to the tip of the tongue. May it not be bound. May it bound. May it worship. May it rise and fall to music unheard. May it be…
