How can I abbreviate your name, "God Keep Me In The Way"... Don't think I should call you "God"! Or maybe that would mean I was the crazy one. :)
Yes, I feel that feeling you mention, but I'll let some other more poetic souls put it into better words. Although we don't believe there can be any direct tie to God, we do very much believe that God's signs are present in and permeate all things. That is our nature as being spiritual beings. As Shoghi Effendi writes in a letter on his behalf, "the core of religious faith is that mystical feeling which unites man with God". This is where so much beauty lies and allows us to draw inspiration to carry on in the other areas of life with a fuller spirit, hope, and love.
