Heavenletters

I realize the main topic here is the wish to see God in the physical thus making Him an individual entity which of course is not possible as God is truly ALL THAT IS and in being ALL THAT IS it is impossible for God to be a single entity.

Or is it?

There is a song written by Joan Osbourne titled "If God Was One of Us".

The first few sections of the song goes as follows:

If God had a name what would it be?
And would you call it to His face
If you were faced with Him
In all His glory
What would you ask if you had just one question

What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make His way home

If God had a face what would it look like?
And would you want to see
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like Heaven, and in Jesus, and the saints and all the prophets.

I vividly remember the first time I heard this song, I was agast at God being compared to a SLOB like one of us! :?

Then my higher-self kicked in and told my ego to go sit down as I really wasn't miffed at God being called a slob but the idea that I WAS BEING EQUATED TO A SLOB LIKE EVERYONE! ;) Oh and yes, it's a daily chore keeping ego in check :Rolleyes:

After REALLY listening to the words the song enlightened me because what it is saying is so very true. GOD is ONE of us - actually HE IS ALL OF US!

Nowadays I chuckle to myself when people state that they want to SEE God. I say to them "Open your eyes"! I see the many faces of God everyday not just in the faces of those people I love and cherish but also in strangers who I haven't the blessing to get to know just yet! God's face doesn't stop there for me either as I see God's face in every animal, insect, bird, flower, tree, clouds, ocean, stars ect, ect.

Nope you won't ever see God's single face as He doesn't have a single face which is truly why God is ALL THAT IS!

By the way Father I thank you for enlightening me in this way of "looking" at you.
I've stopped looking for your face and enjoy the many sights of You and I thank
You very much for all the blessing You bestow on me...I love you.
