How Can I Think Of God?
Many people believe there is a higher spiritual energy called God that transcends the mundane material world. God is said to be the origin for all that is good in the universe – beauty and order in the natural world, higher principles of ethical living, human virtue, creative inspiration, depth of the human soul and its capacity for wisdom and compassion and so on.

Without our sense of God’s human dimension there would be no point to looking for the benefit of communication through prayer and no chance of sensing God’s personal presence. But if God is to be thought of as human, is God merely an image of us or are we an image of God?
