He is the powerful one, the omnipotent, and it is a basic principle that to advance the whole the impetus must come from the strong, not the weak.

What do you expect when you talk about "God showing himself"? Do you want fireworks, burning bushes, angels flying around, a thundering voice in the sky?
Surely the Divine is present all around us and within us, right now. We cannot blame the Divine for not showing Itself just because we lack the vision to perceive what is right in front of us. Perception of the Divine is a state of consciousness, a state of Being.
Peace.
