Reading for the Day: Dancing With Abandon

Then David, girt with a linen apron,
came dancing before the LORD with abandon
2 Samuel 6:5


We've all heard the phrase loving the Lord with all our hearts. My boss, a Dean of a school, often speaks of loving God with all our minds. David seems to suggest in this passage that we also dance with our bodies.

And if there's anyone who loved God with his body it would be Jesus who let others do to his body what no one would wish for themselves, all in loving obedience to his Father.
