Praying for Dance Recitals

My wife has a wonderful Christian dance studio and each year before recital things can be stressful. I do my best to help her out with non-dance things in her business and at home and with the kids. The recital is the peak of their dance year. It’s the culmination of what they’ve learned and practiced showcased in a couple shows to family and friends. It’s important. It’s a beautiful production. It’s a worship experience too.

Every year there’s always things behind the scenes that no one has any clue about that can be difficult. These things can range from music/sound, lighting, program delays, technical glitches, issues with parents, dancers personal issues, someone loses a family member, etc. The main way my Christian wife deals with any and all things related to that recital is to Pray.

She will pray for and about each dancer, family member, the stage, sound, lights, staff, and all the details big and small. She prays before, during and after the recital. I’ve watched her and her Sister bless auditoriums with oil, walk thru the halls and rooms, pray aloud and pray to themselves…they just Pray.

After each recital there are many prayers of thanks too.

Prayer is powerful.

Prayer works.
