What Is God Like?

I often wonder about the nature of God.  We, as humans, tend to put Him in a box.  For one thing, we tend to call him Him.  Sometimes we attach personality and form when we really have no reason to or basis to support it, and as for what He looks like…well, that is best exemplified by Moses when he was told by God that when He passed by him that he better not be looking or it would kill him.  That really makes you wonder what He looks like.

The more interesting part to me is what kind of being exists for all eternity and can make something out of nothing so that we might exist in this universe as human beings.  The only thing I can come up with is that he takes something from Himself to create something else, for if there is nothing else to use in the void of creation at the beginning of time as we know it, what else could He use?

Do you see the exciting part about that?  We are pieces of God walking around here in the chaos of modern man!  We, in that manner, are connected to Him in ways that we can’t possibly understand.  Perhaps it is why God seeks relationship with mankind so diligently and wants our love?  He is seeking the parts of his own self to love (imagine giving up a leg in battle here just for a second to draw a poor comparison of how you might feel longing for that part of you.)  Perhaps that is also why there is the God shaped void in every human that seeks God, even when we deny it, and is never fully satisfied with anything else it finds. 

We are seeking to be reunited with the creator of all things.  Where are you looking?
