Dare to Dance Again: Gone Up with a Shout: Clap Your Hands – May 13, 2018

“Clap your hands, all you peoples; shout to God with loud songs of joy.” — Psalm 47:1

As Jesus prepares to leave the disciples, he opens their minds and blesses them. The result after he ascends is their return to Jerusalem with great joy and a desire for “continually” worshiping and blessing God in the temple. What happens when the “eyes of our hearts are enlightened?” We know the hope that we have been called to. As we wait for the Spirit with hope, we celebrate with abandon because we have no other ruler than the One who reigns with love and justice.
