What Color is God?

When I was in the second grade, I was asked to paint a picture in my religion class of what I thought God looked like to each of us. Most of the kids painted stick figures of a bearded man holding hands around an earth or a sun or heart. None were wrong. My answer seemed to really shock the teacher. I drew a rainbow. My answer was simple, God was everywhere and in everything. God was all colors collectively. The teachers mouth I remembered dropped opened. I was drawing the picture for my first communion assignment in a Roman Catholic grade school that I attended. In second grade, no kid really knew jealously yet or competitiveness, my peers just smiled and giggled agreeing. Yes, ask my sibs I was a deep thinker even in second grade. My mother always said, "Act your age."
Anyway, today we have new questions arising in songs that are just as powerful to contemplate. " What if God were one of us?" I never seem to hear that song anymore. Would we swear and carry on the way we do? Would it be like straightening up and acting right, because mom or dad were in the other room? Does God have to be in your face here on earth, tap you on the shoulder and say " Yes, are you now changed because you see or because you have always known I AM? "
Love is not in one color, not in one religion, not in one culture, not in one country, but one body, humanity. THE LIVING HUMANITY
Love Is For Everyone
Helping
