This is a much more difficult thing to write. Perhaps it is our lack of perception or even our projection that leads to the conclusion that the Spirit is not present or not able to move.
Can anything stop God doing what God wants? I think we can. I think God chooses to give us the space we ask for. Sometimes we ask for nostalgia, or style, or ideology above the living presence of God. Sometimes we simply want it our way. Sometimes our leaders are radical and provocative to get a response, not with the view to glorifying God. Sometimes we are experience junkies.
Sometimes we are simply tired, angry, afraid, too caught up with ourselves to be present. That's why at our church we start with a Psalm each morning. We use the voice of others to remind us of the reality that the world conspires to make us forget.
God is real.
God is here, now.
God will meet with us today.
