A Place at the Table

Thank you for opening a place at the Quaker table for me and others who are like me. After more than fifty years of deep spiritual exploration I am quite sure that I will never find a “being” of any type named God. For me God is everything, not separate in anyway and therefore nothing. There is no separate entity to pray to, seek the will of, comfort me in lonely times of great distress or celebrate with me in times of joy. There is no one to lead me to the oasis from the desert. But don’t pity me for in my life each fallen leaf is a joy, I walk in a life that is always an unexpected gift and when I listen the right way is always clear to me. I need no signposts to the oasis, because it is clear that there is no desert.
