The Spirit had me doing some kind of two step the other week at a revival and as soon as I thought about what I was doing I lost it and got off beat. (I need to humble myself and completely let go.) Anyways I got further distracted when the woman next to me was slained in the spirit and fell out. I had to keep my composure and stomp a foot and clap my hands.
I didn't want to accidentally kick her in the head.
What do you mean by church commentator?
Well, it's almost how you watch a basketball or football game. The announcer is giving a play by play....well that is what I am doing in my head sometimes. I can kind of sense when and how some parts of service will impact people. It has a rhythym...usually goes like this: I see people looking more alert, swaying side to side, and the energy in service gets more intense, then they stand up, then they bounce a little, then they pew dance, then they get to the aisle because they need more space, then they full out dance, then they dance up and down the aisle, then they might take a lap or two around the sanctuary, then they might get somewhere and dance some more, then they might go into tongues, then they might get slain and fall out, then they will be helped up by the ushers and go back to their pew or be sat in the nearest seat. So as all of this is going on, I am doing a play by play in my head like "Oh, she is really liking what the preacher is saying right now, she is about to start dancing....uh oh, she is bouncing, she is about to go in....there she goes, she has a nice one-two going in those shoes. Oh, the shoes are coming off....she is serious about this moment of praise....oh, watch out deacon, she just broke out in a run"
I told you, it is really awful, but also funny. I only do it in my head, and sometimes share it with my bff after service...she is a PK, so she gets it. And now I am sharing the fact that I do this with ya'll
Oh, and about that kick in the head, lawd, I have seen that go down, and it isn't pretty! I'm glad you pulled yourself back in so that no one got hurt...teheheeeee....
I also feel you on the dancing, I am okay at it, but sometimes I will go IN, and I start doing some stuff that I didn't even know that I could do. I'm talking t"wo step-one step-kick out-back step-repeat" type stuff, and usually I'm just a one-two-side to side type praiser
