What do you have in your garden? Right now all I have is the tomatoes and the promise of string beans (every seed is a promise). I keep saying, "When I retire...." and I keep promising all the things I will do, Church and Home, but right now, that promise is only a seed, also. I think what bothers me most about the God-thing is the anthropomorphic aspect. People pray to God and talk about God as if God had a gender (He or She) and a body (He comes to me) and does very people-like things (gets angry, forgives, etc.) My own view is much more vague, because I think that human language has no words for the Other with which we are One. One in the spirit, One with the Universe. That sort of thing. But every time I use words, I'm conscious that I am making it lesser, paring it down to the things that I can conceptualize....so, in the end, I am left with no words at all.
