acceptance in a dance

In So You Think You Can Dance Canada, notable choreographer Mia Michaels created a dance for one of season three's opening number. She used the song "Will I" from the Broadway musical Rent. Songwriter Roger Davis performed this song expressing his fears of dying from AIDS.


What I love about this choreography is how it expressed discrimination in the midst of desiring acceptance. It reminds me so much of man's search for love where each one of us tries to be part of something when in the first place, God had been waiting all this time to embrace us for the person that we are.
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 
Romans 5:8
