Dancing With God

At Easter, our Church performed what is commonly called "The Lifehouse Skit." You can watch the original version here. My 10 year old daughter was really moved by the drama, and after watching it again on YouTube this week, she wrote down her thoughts. I asked her if it was okay if I shared them, so here they are:

Dancing With God

She slowly drifts away from Him, with the help of a boyfriend who turns her head. Greed and the love of money. Alcohol leading to bad choices. Letting others tell you what to do or what to wear. And harming yourself with thoughts of suicide.

Those things will keep us from God. We have the power to change that. God will be, and is always going to be, there for you, and defend you, care for you and love you.

He overcomes everything that you can imagine! He will defeat all levels of Satan's tricks. He is Almighty, Beautiful, Awesome and Amazing.

Dedicate your whole life to Him, and you will one day be dancing with God.
