Scarecrows

10/18/2015

This came to me during worship this morning:
The scarecrow who has been full of dead stuffings, hung up on a wooden frame to scare the birds away... she is coming down. She is ready to dance away all that is empty and dead in order to be filled with light and love. No more scaring the birds or accepting an uncomfortable position in this short life. The wind is rustling new life and she will no longer be idle. 'Dance then wherever you may be. I am the Lord of the Dance said He. And I'll lead you all wherever you may be and I'll lead you all in the dance said He.'

Tonight, I looked up the symbolism of a scarecrow. It says... A scarecrow is a totem of death and fear, but it simultaneously holds the opposite symbolism of hope and prosperity. Yes. God speaks. God moves. God calls from death... a dance.
