I Define "God" Differently

I do definite God differently than most people do. As I've mentioned I am not religious, I'm spiritual. So I don't follow a religion, I follow my own values and morals. I developed these beliefs through many years of examining life and the world around me and determining what feels right and true to me. I also had a spiritual teacher for a few years.

To me, and people like us, God is bigger than all of us, and this world, God is not petty nor does God submit to anger, he is all love and forgivness. God loves everybody equally, and we are all God's children. I believe that God has a plan for us as a whole, but not for each one of us individually, but that all he asks of us is to better and evolve our souls through serving others.

I do believe in heaven, reincarnation and souls. Especially in souls, I believe we all have the power in our souls to split the sky in two and let the face of God shine trough, through must spiritual training and growth. I believe we all have many lives and grow and evolve through each one of them, all leading up to something- Unknown to all of us for a good reason.

I do believe in hell, but it isn't a firey pit where the devil sits on a throne, more an absence of God. I also believe we put ourselves there, by straying down a dark path, God does not send people to hell or punish us. God is merciful and ever forgiving.

Overall, God is very important to me and I am so very grateful for His love and forgiveness, and my beliefs are very important to me.

People always find my view of God either very interesting, very perfect, or very different! Does anyone else have the same views? Or similar?
