Just like a dance, life can be a real rollercoaster. The highs and lows, the successes and failures, and all the unfamiliar terrain in between can make it seem like a chaotic mess. But beauty emerges from understanding the rhythm. Life is a journey filled with lessons and surprises, and the only way to make the most out of it is to learn the rhythm of life.
Moreover, like in a dance, you will need a good partner to dance with and lead you—and no one can lead you better than God. He can give you the insight and understanding to help you make sense of your experiences and find joy and peace in the midst of the chaos. With God as your perfect and faithful partner, you can find real fulfillment as you journey through life.
In this episode, Rachel interviews the author of Embrace the Dance, Rachel Bailey. Listen in as they share how we can turn our “I can’t” to “How can I?”, how prayer and waiting relate to each other, what is something better than perfection, and how we can walk in our purpose with excellence.
You are unique and you have a purpose. Walk in that confidently and don’t let anyone tell you differently.” —Rachel Bailey
