Personality Traits of My Higher Power

God is a huge part of my life. He IS my life. In this entry, I describe the personality traits of my Higher Power. This is part of an exploration and journey that is ongoing in my life and is an important part of my spiritual walk. Thinking in terms of Spirit keeps me more in spirit and less preoccupied with the physical world. This keeps me closer to God and that’s important to me.
