What does "God" mean to you?

When I first began studying The Course I had a problem with the Christian terms, so I put it down for awhile, and rediscovered it later. I'm wondering if anyone else had the same experience. Not to knock Christianity...

Eventually I came to a place of recognizing that my feelings about existence couldn't be threatened by terminology, and that ACIM isn't dogmatic. It uses words that are commonly understood.

Anyway, for me, God represents the consciousness behind existence. The force that creates galaxies and DNA and artists. For me, it's what sustains life and death and rebirth. A presence.

I was thinking we could go over some lessons.

Any thoughts?

    i also had doubts about the christian terms, however, ACIM helped me put them in perspective where i went HMMM...! For once I was able to accept the spirituality in Christianity...

    and yes, i too decided to start the lessons again. I'm waiting for finals to be over tho. i'll save that thought until then.

    eternal peace and LOVE
