Sometimes we simply have to encourage ourselves in the Lord and if that requires dancing or whatever it is you want to do in Jesus name, do it.
2 Samuel 6:14 says, "and David danced before the Lord with all his might." And there was absolutely nothing wrong with that. Many of us should take a cue from David by rejoicing and being glad in our circumstances. If we can dance, clap, shout, or whatever, like David danced, we are blessed, because there are some people who can't. Have you ever stopped and thought about that? Sometimes we get down about what we have and don't have when we don't even realize how so blessed we are. I was in a fitness class recently and one of the ladies has a problem with one of her feet, yet guess what? She was in a fitness class dancing with complicated exercise moves. I thought, wow what an awesome lady. She's not letting what some might have seen as a disability affect her. She was moving to the beat and working extremely hard. I made it a point to smile at her often and she smiled right back. Perhaps she may have been having a difficult time, but I couldn't tell. She was dancing and seemed to be having a great time. Haven't we all been through challenging and hard times? Listen, it's a waste of time to just lay around and feel sorry for ourselves. I learned that the hard way, so I'm now here to tell you to get up and get going. There is something you can do to encourage yourself. There is something you can do to get yourself motivated. Even if it's not to dance literally, there is something we can all do to move to the beat of God's music. It's playing constantly. What is it for you? What's your thing? If it's dancing, dance, but whatever it is, you can do it and it will make you feel much better. So dance.
