Metronomes

Circulating on FB, which of course is how we get all our significant information, is a Japanese video about metronomes.  And that, of course, is about life and faith.

The premise is that, on a fixed surface, metronomes started at different times will never sync.  On a fluid surface, one that can be impacted by every movement, the metronomes will, in a matter of minutes, sync themselves with each other.

The question is, what is the foundation of our church lives together?  Do we insist that the foundation of our institutional life is fixed, immovable?  Or are we willing to sit on the fluid activity of the Holy Spirit, which I guarantee is never fixed.  Just about the time I get my feet under me, the ground shifts again!

So enjoy the event...and you can fast forward, watching periodically to get the idea...though stop at about 2:30 and watch the little guy on the right fall into line!...
