Proactivity with expectation?

Proactivity with expectation?

Thanks Andrew. I think your more proactive proposal is helpful. I suppose I am still struggling with the thought that we ‘take the presence of God’. It can imply that God is not present in the places we go to. If God is everywhere, including within us, then I think that the role of our spirituality is to support the process of discovering that presence. The importance of the ‘two or three’ to me is that it is often in interactions that God’s presence is realised; in the giving and receiving. It is then the expectation of receiving that povides an important balance to our proactivity and hence needs to be a part of our spirituality.
