Guidance

My Dad sent this to me as a forward.  I have no idea where he found it so the author is unknown to me.  I would like to give credit where credit is due, so if anyone knows the original author, please let me know.

GUIDANCE

This is amazing that anyone even thought of this!

When I meditated on the word Guidance,
I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word.
I remember reading that doing GOD's will is a lot like dancing.
When two people try to lead, nothing feels right.
The movement doesn't flow with the music,
and everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky.
When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead,
both bodies begin to flow with the music.
One gives gentle clues, perhaps a nudge to the back
or by pressing lightly in one direction or another.
It's as if the two become one body, moving beautifully.
The dance takes surrender, willingness, and
attentiveness from one person and gentle guidance and
skill from the other.
My eyes drew back to the word GUIDANCE.
When I saw the "G": I thought of God, followed by "u" and "i".
God, "u" and "i", dance
God, you, and I dance.
As I lowered my head, I became willing to trust
that I would get guidance about my life.
Once again, I became willing to let God lead.
My prayer for you is that God's blessings
and mercies are upon you this day and everyday.
May you abide in GOD, as GOD abides in you.
Dance together with GOD, trusting GOD to lead
and to guide you through each season of your life.
