My small group from church has been watching a series of DVDs by Rob Bell called NOOMA. In each little vignette Rob talks about a metaphor for God and spirituality meant to start a group discussion. The one we watched tonight was called "Rhythm". In it he compared God's creation to music, and how we each have a part in the song. We're always playing the music because we're part of God's creation. The question is- are we in tune with the music? God's not some big guy standing behind a curtain, pulling some levers, deciding to heal this person or help that one. God is the composer of a wonderful symphony and he's directing every little detail. Only he's given us the choice to either follow his direction, or to play what we want... even if it's off key and not in rhythm.
Rob's explanation in the video was much better. I definitely recommend checking them out at www.nooma.com. It'll make ya think.
