God
Rabbi Menachem Creditor
There exists an invisible string, a sacred current, air moving through and between us.
We are connected by God’s spirit, through memory, through responsibility, through love, through the burdens we share, and through the blessings we make possible for each other. Perhaps that is one way to understand God.
Whatever else we might believe about God, God can mean this: there is more to this world than me.
God may be a Being, a Presence, the One to whom we pray, the transcendent power that holds us when we cannot hold ourselves, the sacred connection that pulses beneath everything. But the humility of faith begins here: I am part of something larger than myself. I am connected to you, you are connected to me, and we are connected to each other through something deeper than we can always name.
