Today during worship in the back, people were dancing, flags were waving, the kids were worshiping.
In the Spiritual we were one domino falling from a Christian mosh pit.
In the Natural a few people more than a 'handful' were dancing and jumping around with just a small fraction of the freedom we actually have.
Oh, GOD! When will you move ME and YOUR PEOPLE to completely let loose?
Let me hear you! Let me be foolish.
What seems such a large leap from our current experience, is just one or two small steps --that look like complete nonsense-- away from something much greater!
I refuse to look at this current 'problem' --getting people (including myself) to open up more in worship-- in a SOULISH way.
Nothin'll get done if I look at it that way.
Spirit, come lead.

You know, it's all about perspective. Jan (Dave's wife) was telling me how excited she was to be here this morning...how there was this huge sense of freedom in the church...how all the falgs blessed her. I guess the worship leader does not alow that kind of activity to occur in her church and she was overwhelmed by how much was at ours (overwhelmed in a good way). Kinda funny, I was just excited that something small broke loose in our tiny church, yet someone frome a church 30 times our size was overwhelmed but the volume of it all. This spirit stuff blows me away at times.
Spiritual stuff is supposed to blow us away....that makes it spiritual, and special, and not-ordinary to keep our interest and keep us ready for the next spiritual experience. If it didn't blow us away, it'd be like...grocery shopping or something totally mundane. That's why God is so good, he keeps it exciting.
