We're finally at the theatre! These are all from the first day at the theatre rehearsal...
It's amazing what can happen when you give Jesus your heart as you dance, and don't hold anything back. I have finally come to understand why I struggled with my joy as I danced...I tried to give it my ALL, but most of the time, I wasn't clear on who I was giving my ALL. Before The Velveteen Rabbit ballet show, I was struggling so much with my faith and worrying about what other people thought of me while I danced, instead of only dancing for The One, God. Then, my Dad told me something like: "Have you ever thought of 'Audience of One'?" I hadn't thought of it that way really, but my Dad began that wondering inside my heart of only dancing for "Audience of One". Then, this girl that's a little older than me, a girl that I admire truly because every time she dances I see a joy that illuminates from her face and shines forth; I asked her what helps her to dance for God so beautifully, and she answered, "Audience of One."
By chance? I know better. I finally realized that this entire time I had been jealous of the older dancers because I saw in them something that I didn't have...and it was joy. Joy that only is borne through a heart that dances for the "Audience of One." God opened my eyes to my selfishness, and He brought me the greatest joy I've ever had through this show. There has been other shows before this one, but this one...
was my absolute BEST.
Audience of One.
