God Quote by Sabah Carrim
““Sadly you went looking for God above the skies and below the ground and because you didn't find him you thought he didn't exist. Then you believed he was at the edge of the universe and when you still did not find him you again believed that he did not exist. You didn't care to look hard enough. What you kept seeing above, below and at the edge were in truth just the intestines of God. We are its microbes.””
