Saint Paul: Above, Through, In

In one of Saint Paul's Letters, Chapter 4, 1-7, He writes how God is above, through and in us. This corresponds to Ken Wilber's different persons of God in Sex, Ecology and Spirituality, a must read from 1995. I will blog more about Wilber on other days. He writes about the value of thinking of God as above or greater than us or "Thou". I find some value in thinking of Him, Her or It as an old man...Wilber also writes that there is a God in us. We can create as in the "First there was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God..." I take "through us" to mean in relationships, perhaps the hardest endeavor.
