The Kyries

And your concern reminds me of another couple of large folks.



First, I'm a pretty large man. I can move fairly well, though certainly not a dancer. I could be very self-conscious if it were not for the things that Father has done in me. The major thing that He impressed on me was that so long as I am moving at His direction and for His glory, most folks would never see me, or at least not the physical dimension of me. That has proven to be so.



It is one of those forever things that there are those in the skinny ranks who sniff and lift their eyebrows when folks of size want to offer their bodies as living sacrifices. Sometimes the skinnies forget that they are not the only ones who desire to offer honor to the King. We were in the midst of yet another round of that "discussion" in one venue when we were at a worship symposium where a short but stout woman began to move with flags, :flag: along with a very gifted young mime. She led, he followed, and the earth moved. It was breath-taking. Joan moved with grace and skill, and most importantly, the anointing of our God. Her obedience and presence shattered the "skinnies-only-syndrome" for a lot of folks in leadership, both in movement and in parish leadership.



Don't fret the size thing. Just so long as it's for Him, and at His behest, you shan't be noticed at all. That's a good thing! All to Him, m'dear, all to Him.
