Hi New Soul- There's an interesting yoga exercise that might answer your question.
Cover your eyes and ears, shut your mouth and hold your nose. You are now cut off totally from the outside world. Listen to the inner sounds, the sound of your mind thinking. Is God closer? Is God farther? - Basically, neither.
Since cutting yourself off from the world makes no difference, God must be elsewhere. From anywhere, turn to go "elsewhere" - and it takes you out of this world of everyday existence. I'm not able to say where it goes because language fails.
After language fails, the mind's eye can still pursue the idea into an astral hyperspace and then to its point of Origin. Event One. And there you are, just you and God. In fact, God is hard to see, kinda blending into everything, but you're aware of you. And that's the essential message - God is everywhere, yet when you go to look, you find only yourself, which means that to that degree you are God. We are the manifestation, God is the potential.
Generalizing, everyone is God, and God is the collection of all the Godliness of us all, as well as being what St Thomas Aquinas called "the Uncaused Cause", and is thus pervasively present in all spacetime.
