Me – “Why do you think God gave you to me?”
Her – “I don’t know. Because He just thought we would be good together.”
Me – “She was right.”
Her – “He or She.”
Pause
Her – “People think God is a person, and God is not a person.”
Me – “Yeah, some people give God human qualities and imagine God to be separate from themselves.”
Her – “God is Life.”
Me – “Exactly. I like to think of God as the ocean and each of us as waves. We’re part of the ocean. We are a part of God.”
I don’t remember what came after that, but it was a nice conversation to end our day as we stared at the stars on her bedroom ceiling.
