What is God?

God is in the small spaces, the pauses in music that make the song something extraordinary.

God is the small kindnesses in everyday life, whether it be carrot cake, a quick smile, or a genuine how are you.

God is sailing in a small wooden fishing boat in the Bahia de Los Angeles at 6 in the morning, the water smooth as glass and reflecting the early, gentle light of dawn so that all the world seems to be a gentle mirror of just the lightest tints of gold and blue.

I may not be Christian, but I certainly am religious.
