A Time to Dance...

We were invited to a reformation day celebration with our friends from Allelon Farm. It had been sometime since we had been able to fellowship with these friends since we are constantly traveling in opposite directions to church.


















Chrissy called the dance. It had been a while since we had been at a contra dance as well. She does a really good job at keeping everybody moving in the right direction and making sure all have a partner that want one.


















We meet several people that we had not seen before as well as renewed some old acquaintances. The boys all had a good time and we enjoyed sitting down visiting and watching the festivities. I highly recommend including some dancing as you walk through this life. Dancing that lifts the spirit and encourages the soul.










Some would have it labeled sin while others would take it into debauchery. It is much what you make out of it. As for my family we can equally praise and serve the Lord through all aspects of our lives. None of them are separate.



Take the time to fellowship with other believer's as the Lord gives you opportunity. More importantly those that you may not normally get to enjoy. Invite them along when you can, you never know who may need ministering in their lives. Open up your homes and your hearts. You will be greatly blessed.

Ecclesiastes 3:1 There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a time for every event under heaven--2 A time to give birth and a time to die; A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.3 A time to kill and a time to heal; A time to tear down and a time to build up.4 A time to weep and a time to laugh; A time to mourn and a time to dance.5 A time to throw stones and a time to gather stones; A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.6 A time to search and a time to give up as lost; A time to keep and a time to throw away.7 A time to tear apart and a time to sew together; A time to be silent and a time to speak.8 A time to love and a time to hate; A time for war and a time for peace.9 What profit is there to the worker from that in which he toils?10 I have seen the task which God has given the sons of men with which to occupy themselves.11 He has made everything appropriate in its time. He has also set eternity in their heart, yet so that man will not find out the work which God has done from the beginning even to the end. 12 I know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good in one's lifetime;13 moreover, that every man who eats and drinks sees good in all his labor-- it is the gift of God.

Hope you enjoyed the dance! It was so great to see you all again; it had been too long since we'd last seen you.

The previous post--the one about St. Jude--brought tears. What a trying time for you all, and for any family that has or is going through it. But praise God the facility is available!
