Lead Me

My friend and I have been trying to learn a little bit of swing dancing lately. She has caught on pretty quick but I'm a little bit slower. Now, the interesting part of swing dancing is that the girl just follows the guy. What I mean is that the girl has no idea what the guy is about ready to do until he does it. There is communication going on the whole time whether it be through looks or the different signals. But, when it comes to my part as the "leader", I tend to become lazy. I often think to myself, "It would be so much easier if she led!!". But, in real life that can't be the case. Guys are called to be leaders. We are called to protect and provide for our families. Not just sit around watching TV and letting our wives run the house. We guys (I'm speaking for myself also) need to take an active role in our families. Married or not. So as an admonition to myself, I'll try to be a better "leader" in dancing. Scratch that. In my whole life.
