God Is Here

God is here.

God is there.

God is everywhere.

He's in Tokyo.

He's in Toledo.

He's in Toronto.

God is in joy.

He is also in sorrow.

God is in the one you see as friend.

He is also in the person you deem a foe.

Fields of learning abound:

Art

Math

Music

Dance

Sports

Theatre

Science

Painting

Reading

Religion

Business

Literature

The sphere boxes Him not,

encompasses Him not,

disproves Him not,

excludes Him not,

exhausts Him not.

He is here.

He is there.

He's everywhere.

Individuals roam the universe:

Tall people

Short people

Brownish people

Pink-hued people

Strong-willed people

Mild-mannered people

The varieties of leanings,

skills, and expressions

of all humanity

graciously point to a Creator

who delights in stamping

person, animal, and plant

with His awe-inspiring mark.

Can't hear Him?

Listen.

It's raining somewhere.

A lion is roaring somewhere.

A girl is weeping somewhere.

Can't see Him?

Look.

There is a rainbow in the sky.

A beggar's palm is open before you.

Your neglected spouse is waiting for you at home.

Can't taste Him?

Salivate.

The salt of the ocean is in the air.

A barbecue is calling your name.

Delicious mangos are on sale.

Can't smell Him?

Inhale.

A fragrant peony and a red rose are in the yard.

A baby's freshly washed and powdered skin is awaiting.

The neighbor's recently mown lawn is activating your allergies.

Don't miss Him.

Don't limit Him.

Do not look past Him.

God is here, friend.

God is also there, bud.

God is, oh so, everywhere.
