God is not abstract

“Where do I find God? God is nowhere to be found!” I’ve heard people despair.

God is easy to find if you know what to look for.

God is Love.

When a person smiles, gives a big hug, acts unselfishly, cares, notices, encourages, and supports, God is at work in the love expressed.

God is Mind.

When you get a good idea, gain insight, receive fresh perspective, become inspired, or solve a problem, God is at work in the helpful ideas revealed.

God is good.

When tensions dissolve, stress drains away, conflict recedes, or troubles disappear, God is at work bringing something better to the surface.

Some people complain they can see no good around them. I reply, “You are not looking! Break out of the cubicle of self-centeredness and look around! It’s easy to find God. God is everywhere. God is omnipresent.

The limited material sense of things doubts this spiritual reality, but the material senses never have gotten the truth right. They need to be forsaken. We need to get into a spiritual sense of things. Then we begin to see, maybe a little bitty at a time, but nonetheless, it will appear, God’s glory everywhere!!

God is not abstract and unknowable. God is here and now. You can't miss His presence if you're looking!
