-------Original Message-------   From: Gloria Vodicka Date: 1/28/2011 4:03:32 PM To: undisclosed-recipients Subject: Daily Worship - Dancing in the Minefields - Andrew Peterson   Here's our Daily Worship for today.  I fell in love with this song.  Those of you who are or have been married, the application is easy.  For those of you who have the Lord as that One that you dance with, make the application in that way.  Thank you, Jim, for dancing with me all these years!     Dancing in the Minefields (For this cause a man shall leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave to his wife; and they shall become one flesh.  Genesis 2:24)   Well, I was 19, you were 21 The year we got engaged Everyone said we were much too young But we did it anyway We got the rings for 40 each from a pawnshop down the road We said our vows and took the leap now 15 years ago   And we went dancing in the minefields We went sailing in the storms And it was harder than we dreamed But I believe that's what the promise is for   Well 'I do' are the two most famous last words The beginning of the end But to lose your life for another I've heard is a good place to begin 'Cause the only way to find your life is to lay your own life down And I believe it's an easy price for the life that we have found   And we're dancing in the minefields We're sailing in the storms And this is harder than we dreamed But I believe that's what the promise is for That's what the promise is for   So when I lose my way, find me When I lose loves chains, bind me At the end of all my faith To the end of all my days When I forget my name, remind me   'Cause we bear the light of the Son of man So there's nothing left to fear So I'll walk with you in the shadow lands Till the shadows disappear 'Cause He promised not to leave us And His promises are true So in the face of all this chaos, baby I can dance with you   So let's go dancing in the minefields Let's go sailing in the storms Oh, let's go dancing in the minefields And kicking down the doors Oh, let's go dancing in the minefields And sailing in the storms Oh, this is harder than we dreamed But I believe that's what the promise is for That's what the promise is for     Father God, thank You for Your creation of marriage.  Thank You for the blessings You pour out upon them.  You have divinely chosen to show us Your relationship with Your church as a marriage.  You are the bridegroom, we are the bride.  When we go through those minefields, those storms of life, we do not go alone.  You dance with us through them all.  Thank You for the promises and Your faithfulness.  Amen and amen.
