They say that God is everywhere, and yet we always think of Him as somewhat of a recluse.
~ Emily Dickinson

A matron said to Rabbi Jose: “My god is greater than thine.  When God revealed Himself to Moses, he did not flee, but when my god, the serpent, appeared there Moses ran away.”  The Rabbi replied: “Moses could escape from thy god by retreating a few steps, but where could he have escaped from my God?”
~ Talmud, Shemot Rabbah, 3

Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth?
–Jeremiah 23:24
