in a religion where the people dont beleive that God has a body or a gender, and they are trying to say "May God watch over you" but they dont want to say God, because they beleive that God is just a "Life Force"
so they want to imply that it is More than just another God, that it is the Almighty Force that everything is connected to, you are saying may God watch over you, but you want to say something that would imply that it is a force.
What would you say???
Thanks for your help!

It is amazing how it’s human nature to assume that because we believe or don’t believe something, that makes it true. Some may not believe in the law of gravity, and may feel they have "evidence" to back up their belief. However, gravity exists whether they believe in it or not. The truth is, God is knowable. Jesus testified, "And this is life eternal, that they might know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent" (John 17:3). We not only have the testimony of the Scriptures to tell us this, but we have the testimony of multitudes of Christians who know the Lord personally. It is more truthful to say, "I don’t want to know God." Sinful man runs from Him as did Adam in the garden of Eden.

They could just say "May God be with you" and be MEANING that God is the life force.

Alcoholic's Anonymous uses the term Higher Power, not wanting anyone offend by the term God.

Go with the blessings of the Divine.
Or something like that. I'd use "Divine" instead of God, since people have very definite opinions of what God is.

I would say, "Relax. According to Buddhism such a god cannot logically exist in the way most people say one does." if and only if someone asked ME directly and they could understand the philosophy and logic behind it.
