What is God ? For starters how did Jesus refer to God ? He always used the word "Father", but how do you say "Father" in Aramaic ? AB.The "Our Father" starts with the aramaic words "Abwun"
He used the letter/numbers Aleph-Bayt. That's the key to understanding What "God" is. In Kabbalah the letter Aleph+Bayt combination means the Cosmic Light within. That is what "God" is. That is what Yeshua was also referring to in Luke 17:21 "The Kingdom of God is within" Where and What is God ? Within you, within your neighbor, within that tree, within that rock. Everything is God.
Jesus said, "It is I who am the light which is above them all. It is I who am the All. - Logion 77
From me did the all come forth, & unto me did the all extend. Logion 77
Split a piece of wood, and I am there. Lift up the stone, and you will find me there. - Logion 77
That which you have will save you if you bring it forth from yourselves - Logion
"The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you." Luke 17:21

Meister Eckhart and God
God is at home, it's we who have gone out for a walk. - Meister Eckhart
The knower and the known are one... God and I, we are one in knowledge - Meister Eckhart
You may call God love, you may call God goodness. But the best name for God is compassion. - Meister Eckhart
Words derive their power from the original word. - Meister Eckhart
What we plant in the soil of contemplation, we shall reap in the harvest of action. - Meister Eckhart
What a man takes in by contemplation, that he pours out in love. - Meister Eckhart
Truly, it is in darkness that one finds the light, so when we are in sorrow, then this light is nearest of all to us. - Meister Eckhart
To be full of things is to be empty of God. To be empty of things is to be full of God. - Meister Eckhart
The outward man is the swinging door; the inner man is the still hinge. - Meister Eckhart
The eye with which I see God is the same eye with which God sees me. - Meister Eckhart
Every creature is a word of God. - Meister Eckhart
There exists only the present instant... a Now which always and without end is itself new. - Meister Eckhart
