flying dancers

There was a special on Great Performances with the training and the dancing of young men who are amazing. They can almost fly. Seriously from a flat footed stance they launch into the air and tap their feet together and it is beautiful to watch.
Have you ever dreamed of flying? Though gymnasts, skaters, and dancers move through the air it takes effort---and practice and skill and practice and practice...and a soul that flies too.
Like musicians who have the touch and make musical notes fly it comes from practice and through the soul.

What is it then that makes your soul fly? That challenges you to leap up in the air, in a metaphorical sense perhaps, and then land soft as a dove..

Is there something? Does reading a wonderful story? Does prayer and meditation? Does a long hot shower? How do you soar?

In this Advent season be lifted by the hope and the grace and the peace...No matter how flat-footed you start... You can fly.

God abides
