Two young boys were excessively mischievous. Their parents could be sure that if any mischief occurred in town, their boys were probably involved in some way. The mother then heard that clergyman in town had been successful in disciplining children and later asked him for help.
The clergyman agreed to speak to the children and asked to see them individually. The 8 year-old went to meet him first. The clergyman sat the boy down and asked him sternly, "Where is God?"
The boy made no response, so the clergyman repeated the question in an even sterner tone. "Where is God?”
Again the boy made no attempt to answer, so the clergyman raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face. "Where is God?"
Frightened, the boy ran directly home, slamming his door and hiding in his closet. His older brother followed him into the closet and asked, "What happened?"
The younger brother replied, "We are in big trouble this time. God is missing, and they think we did it!"

Best way to end a day is smiling - thank you so very much.
No insult intended - but Bless you for trying to make people smile, (and you are succeeding).
Peace onto you forever, also.

Cute little story.
However, G-d is not the one who is missing; that would be the "lost souls" or nonbelievers. They are "missing" from His Presence, He is patiently waiting for all people to accept Him; but time will run out for them one day. Jesus the Christ, came into this world to die and be raised again; for all the "lost" souls.
Even if only one person, throughout all of our history; had been the only one to commit sin. Jesus the Christ, would've still shed His blood, died, and risen again; so that One Person could have eternal life.

Okay, nice joke. lol. but still... um, to answer the initial question. He is in the heart of each person who accepts him. and following after the heart of each person who doesn't.
If he is allowed into the heart, and allowed to take control, we see broken hearts making history.... filled with love that never leaks through the cracks, and more wonderful things beyond!
don't underestimate God's unfailing love and mercy.
