Dancing

I was watching a movie where a very emancipated high school girl was learning ballroom dancing. She was infuriated that her male partner was designated to “lead.” The wise instructor pointed out that the “power” was in the female partner’s willingness to follow that lead.

I thought this was a good picture of faith. So often 'religion' is seen as all about rules, when God is really all about our willingness to follow His lead.
