The Dancing Old Man
I Love church. I love it because it is there where I experience God in a very real way. There is a man at my church. In his 70's I think. He wears suspenders with a suit every Sunday. He is usually sitting alone. But when that worship music begins...he is no longer sitting. When the music picks up, faster, louder... he starts dancing. And last week, he did it again...and it made me cry. To see this man dance with his arms raised & his face lit up with pure joy...it's like witnessing a little bit of heaven, right there in front of me. I can't look away. Why is he so filled up with joy? He knows a great love. He has been forgiven much so he loves God much. And watching him makes me love God more too.
