A Loving God

The God I have encountered, and am with every morning, is a very strong, loving presence, with a love much stronger than anything I have encountered before.  I make no effort to personify that presence, just be with it and carry it with me during the day.  If I do that, I find evidence of that loving presence all around me.  I can’t say I understand it, but I sense it in each of us and in our environment.  I find no evidence of feelings like exclusivity or jealousy, feelings I associate with ego, within that presence, only love.  I get no impression that humans are pitiful or sinful creatures, in fact those ideas seem to conflict with the love.  I treasure that presence and will follow it anywhere or do whatever it leads me to do.
