Just a thought
God Within Us:
I who am Divine am truly in you. I can never be sundered from you:
However far we be parted, never can we be separated.
I am in you and you are in Me.
We could not be any closer.
We two are fused into one, poured into a single mould.
Thus, unwearied, we shall remain forever.
- Mechtild of Magdeburg, 13th Century Mystic

Comment: This is 'The God in whom we live and move and have our being' that Paul mentions. It is also God as the air we breathe, the ocean in which we swim that contemporary theologians have revived and developed. Martin
