In the "God" of the various mystics of all Faiths, yes. In the "God" as understood and believed in by those of a literalist/fundamentalist mindset, no.
It's really more that I have trust/faith that "all shall be well, and all manner of thing shall be well" (Mother Julian of Norwich in her "Revelations of Divine Love")
Some would call such a "wishy washy soft soap" God. But if taken seriously, if Faith is real, then the call to be as "God" is - eternally reconciling and restoring - is a demanding call as we meet each day with our fellow human beings.
