What God feels like to me (Part 1)

“We may ignore, but we can nowhere evade the presence of God.  The world is crowded with Him.  He walks everywhere incognito.  And the incognito is not always hard to penetrate.  The real labor is to remember, to attend.  In fact, to come awake.  Still more to remain awake.” 
C.S. Lewis

I feel God listening behind silence and stillness.  I feel Him in me and outside of me. 

What does God feel like? 

He feels like eyes and ears and hands, but more so the deep reality behind these. 

I feel truly seen and heard and touched, or connected to.  All the time.  No matter where I am.  No matter how I feel.  I can feel these things if I choose, or ignore them.  Both are equally easy.

I feel God in the room when the room is filled with people and when the room is empty.  I can hear God’s voice when it is loud or quiet. 

How?

The same way I can hear my thoughts no matter what is going on around me.  But there is a Mind behind my mind.  This is the Mind of God.  There is a Peace behind my emotions, whether I am peaceful or not.  This is the Emotion of God.  There is a Will behind my will.  Moving yet Immovable.  This is the Will of God.
This is what God feels like to me.
