God is present in the love between us. In a crowd. In a band. In a marriage. In the way we meet the world. God is present in love expressed as action. I sang the statement “I still haven’t found what I’m looking for” as a question when I was twenty-seven. But in trying to make peace with my own uncertainty, I grew to be certain in one regard. That whatever our instincts or ideas about the great mysterious He or She or They, whatever the differences of the great faith traditions, they find common ground in one place: among the poor and vulnerable is where the signal is strongest.
