My god is not personal

My god is not personal. It is not a personality in the way that a monotheistic god is. Mine is the god of universal appearance, of creation and exists in all things. Its brevity is way beyond the ability of any human mind to comprehend. The keenest may make approximations or describe it by analogy but it is unknowable. I can not call it he, she or it for my god is all these things.

I see it in the tiniest particle, subatomic structures and patterns, and I see it in the vastness of space. I see it in the exchanges between living things, in the look of a child in the wonder of discovery and in the delight of play. I see it in the considerations of the learned and the wise and I see it in the intricate and independent workings of my body. I live in awe of the greatness that has extended the hand of companionship to me. With each breath do I know my god and feel the provision made for me to exist and partake in the greatest of spectacles.

I see my god in the love of others, qualities given a home in my fellow beings, – human or otherwise- those whom I call brothers and sisters for I see that we are all as one, a family derived from the same source. Our expressions different, our experience broad ranging but our common heritage the same. We are children of a universe that is the work in progress of my god, an unfinished symphony being writ new and extended each day, each hour, each moment.

I am weak in the face of my god but given strength by its purpose. I see in the weakness and vulnerability of those precious things a reason to be a protector of my god’s children. I am held in the bosom of my god, exalted by inclusion and I revere its diversity, I live in awe and gaze in wonder at the perfection of its expression. I see it in the laws of nature that filter from the deepest part of creation to the handful of sand that trickles through my fingers.

Always will I uphold the sanctity of my god’s works and purpose to grow and refine. I shall endeavour to be of account and mirror the actions of my god in my own actions. There is no other reason for living than to extend the grace of this common heritage, a mutuality of kind where the only admission policy is that life abides yet within and each is an integrated part of creation’s possibility.

My god’s creation is the love of kind, the love of companionship and the love of communion between its divided parts who seek to come together in an illumined whole. The physical and material worlds are the manifestation of its cause, its cause is the manifestation of a purpose whose will permeates all things, the will of creation, which is my god’s face, is to be known by its children and recognised in order that it may better know and engage with them. Freedom to do, freedom to choose is the gift of my god, and only through this extension may I know truly of the love my god extends to me in trust and recognition of that integrity. Invested that each of its children in their uniqueness may emancipate themselves and become an integrated part of the conscious ray of creation.

My god is in all things and you are part of that. In you do I see the magnificence of creation reflected.
