Humans are relentless in their efforts to understand God. We can change the language (some say “God” is an over-used word), we can find new metaphors (poets are especially good at this), we can duck the conversation altogether by claiming God does not exist (a common strategy for something that is — almost by definition — not graspable). It’s the engagement with the question that is unrelenting. “That which you are seeking is causing you to seek.” And seek we do.
There is a presence here and now;
A presence with us all;
A presence when we’re trav’ling high;
A presence when we fall.
God is all without being any thing
while being the all in every thing.
God is the perhaps at the edge
of every moment of choosing.
