God does not lack participation in failure, struggle, and triumph, because He invested a spark of His Divinity in the human being — an imperfect character living in this difficult and challenging world. God lives in this world and partakes in the challenge and adventure of becoming perfect through you and me. This does not mean that we are God. But it does mean that we are an aspect of God — you and I are sparks of God. And this we must always remember, that although God is manifest within us, He continues to be beyond us.
— David Aaron, The Secret Life of God
