i just watch a video of this extraordinary young 11 year old kid dance at the very popular show, Britain's got talent. i was like wow. you can check it out here.

but what really hit me was not the dance.

in this show, and the many others like it, its about getting approval from the judges and your fellow countrymen. you stand there, you sing your song, you do your dance, you do crazy stunts, you do magic tricks etc, all in the hope that you be approved by the judges to go to the next round.

for this kid, he simply, loves dance. and he dances. he gives it his all to this audition.

see how similar this is to our christian walk.

we all have our own songs that we sing to God, our own dances, our own performances. all of which we show to God hoping for his approval. like the story of cain and abel. would our sacrifices of praise be lovely or despicable to God? would God approve us?

so i urge you all. dance your heart out for the Lord. it is the most important approval we need.

imagine father son and holy spirit are like 3 judges watching you, perform the performance of your life. and in the end, he would either say "well done, good and faithful servant." or "away with me evil doer!"

this is the most important approval we must have. lets rise up and take our upward call, that is; christlikeness.

amen.
