God is like the one who people worships or give praises to.
If you ever prayed every night for grants or anything you need, that is God you're granting. You see, I have learned in my book of the knowledge tree or the child crafts book on how the planets got their names, it says that the planet Pluto, the farthest "dwarf" planet, was named after the roman god of the dead. Earth our planet (before it was called eorthe) was named after the roman goddess of nature. Neptune was named after the roman god of the sea. Uranus was named after an ancient sky god. Jupiter, the biggest planet in our solar system, was named after the most important roman god. Venus was named after the roman goddess of beauty, because it is so beautiful to look at. Saturn is named after the roman god of farming. Mars, the red planet, was named after the roman god of war, and finally Mercury was named after the roman god of the messenger of the other gods, because Mercury appears and disappears (seen from Earth), but these are only the gods that were worshipped before Jesus Christ, the son of the real mightiest and the most high and the GOD of all gods.
Advice: if you still want to learn more about God, just study about religion or Christian Living or maybe you can go to places so that you will learn what other people worship.

Ultimately, God is our forbear.
In nature, God designed every living thing to reproduce and have children that are identical to them. There is not a single exception in all of nature, and not even evolution can deny this characteristic.
Offspring always look like the parents.
This was the theme of Genesis 1. On the 6th day, God basically said, "Now it's my turn. Let us make man in our image and in our likeness."
In this statement, God is saying that we are his genetic offspring (not his spiritual offspring). This is why Luke understood God to be the father of Adam, the same way Adam was the father of Seth. He made no distinction in his family tree. (See Luke 3.)

God is a higher deity or being believed to have created the world in 6 days. He is believed to be all loving. It is said, as Adam and Eve went out of the garden gates, god followed them.

For heedless people, he (she, it...) is some imaginary power stronger than man. Disputes endlessly occurred based on this primitive concept.
For people who consciously learn and practice religion through the Holy Books, God is the Supreme Creator and Sustainer of all worlds and all creatures visible and invisible. The mature humanity today are enabled to search intellectually as well as spiritually for the truth to establish a new world civilization for all people.

God is our way of defining a higher presence which we do not fully understand but attempt to by naming it god.
Its the understanding that this higher presence exists, but we do not fully understand it. Sort of like an ant attempting to understand a Human being. it is so far beneith us that it can never fully comprehend our existance.
it is also our scapgoat, and 'protector'. it makes us feel better to blame god when things go wrong, and to thank god when things go right.

God is good all the time, all the time God is good
God is all the good that you see around you
any absence of good is the absence of God.
