Well, why not?
The bubble storm idea was born playing in a friends garden with my two-year-old, and her friends. There's something so beautifully unpredictable about the way the fly about after you have breathed them to life. A bit like us then?
God breathes life in to us, and we take flight, living life, until one-day, probably without much warning, our life here ends. So, there's one reason why bubbles are symbolic to us.
Another is that they represent freedom. God's life for us is not a series of set-piece actions that God makes us do to please him. We are free, born of Spirit and Water, to fly on the currents of the Holy Spirit. Sure, we need scripture and prayer and fellowship to maintain a level of safety as we fly, but we are more free than we realise in God's grace.
As we breathe in God's presence and Word, we breathe out his love and that is another picture for using bubbles. When we get together (as church) we form something wonderful and beautiful, and are able to make quite a scene! This is the ultimate meaning of what happened that sunny day in July 2010 in Bournemouth Square.
We hope you too will be inspired to breathe out love and touch somebody with you life.
