10 minutes being the time it takes an egg to boil to perfection on an Induction cooktop brought to a boil at P, and then lowered to 8, and consequently the time I had to write this post.  In case you were wondering…

Years ago a dear friend of mine once made me aware of the book title “Your God is Too Small”, by J.B. Phillips.  I had never read it before, but I liked the concept and it fit with the conversation we were having at the time, one of the many she and I have shared over the years that I have truly cherished.  The more I’ve explored over the past few years though, the more I have come to believe that my God is too BIG.  And by that I mean, too big for any one faith tradition (Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, etc.), or none at all.

Because I believe that God is love, literally.  God is the force that binds all of creation together in a way that makes us sing internally when we are mindfully, lovingly, sharing of ourselves – with all other living things, including our physical surroundings – the earth, and by extension – the universe.  To tie God down to a given faith tradition is too limiting, and I believe as the world becomes far more interconnected, through travel and technology, it doesn’t serve humanity well.

More to come…
