She Danced and Sang

I’ve been teaching Bible study at the assisted living facility for nearly 6 years and have lost many during that time. It’s sad to watch someone literally begin to deteriorate in body and mind, leaving the present to think of who knows when or where. Once so perky and smiling and singing praises and telling me about how her husband used to take her dancing and would dip her all the way down to the floor. Now she’s fading away, and I thank God for the privilege of knowing her and teaching her and listening to her beautiful dance story. Dear Lord, when it comes time to take her home, please dip her to the floor of heaven in a dance.
