Care to tango?

A dance I would love to learn, a dance I would love to dance as long as its with the woman I want and who wants me... of course at that point it would be my wife! Who ever she may be, her and I are going to have a lot of fun together.

However, I am not here to talk about dancing tonight, in fact it has been quite some time since I have come here to talk. I'm sure you have noticed and thus I will stop eloquently pointing out the obvious very soon, but perhaps not yet. I have not had anything good to say on here for quite some time, sure I could no doubt have written some omni-addressed poem or quoted some song, but for that I did not have time or desire. So until now my dear audience I have been as silent, silent but still a voice like the falling rock in a great fissure ever ticking and tapping as it falls against the great rock walls, perhaps this is my smash against its bottom, until now unbound to knowledge.

I come to bring to you an idea, one that I would think I bring from the word. Rather I am or may simply be just bringing the word. Many times in my life, when Christianity is apposed, I have seen it simply hide behind its faith, use scripture to defend itself. I must intervene with myself for just a moment to say that I think there is no flaw with what we have done in the past. I continue... hiding behind your faith is indeed hiding behind God, perhaps even as some worship songs may quote "under your wings". I must ask at this point, is the God we serve a God that would hide behind His shield, or is He the God that would stand up, impervious to attack as He is and simply hurl His shield at His enemy, knocking the wind of him, throwing him to the ground with chest crushing pain? I can see a warrior in our God, and yes I see a God who loves and embraces, but if you care to read the old testament, many of its great characters were great leaders because they were wise, were obedient, or were men of the sword. I'm not saying the next time someone questions your faith that you pull out your bible and chuck it at them. That would be funny but very flawed. I'm saying that if you believe what you read between those leather bindings that you take your stance, show your perfect form, and reveal the Lion of Judah. So to finish I simply quote, "He'll often drop in. Only you mustn't press Him. He's wild, you know. Not like a tame lion."

The short version... If you believe it, you must live it! If you live it, you must always be ready to use it! "Once a King or Queen of Narnia, always a King or Queen. Bear it well, Sons of Adam! Bear it well, Daughters of Eve!" No, you may not yet have your crown, some day you will, but as any noble person should, show your colors, and live up to the code of nobility, for in Gods house he would certainly reward you if you try. Sure trying may be rare among us, fulfilling it may be an uphill battle, but living for God is by far the greatest call to arms of all time.

The idea of dancing, I am to tired to look up it's origin, if it can even be found on the internet. I would have to say though, that any dance that requires precise movement, rhythmic art, and bold stances must have origin upon the field of battle. Where could it be more important to have precise movements, rhythmic aw striking art, and bold stances than in the face of death when in hand to hand combat with your foe? That is just a thought. My MSN name this week... "This is my shield, and no, it won't protect you from me." No that is not a quote, not to my knowledge, but then again what hasn't already been said? If its great, then perhaps it just wasn't written down the first time.
