"I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy,
to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God, which is your spiritual worship."
Romans 12: 1
This is an awkward subject for me since, well, I move awkwardly. But I admire those who dance and give praise to God and my spirit--if not my body--moves with them.
I found this YouTube video of J. Philip Newell, an author who I admire who writes on Celtic Christianity. He is leading a "body prayer." I decided to try it--in the privacy of my bedroom. But after I did that I realized I was missing the point. The symbolism is profound--God, self, others.
