Are we talking about My God or Your God?

My God does have a physical body.
Its called the Universe and we all exist inside it.

The ability of the man
Some animals have stronger senses than humans. The African elephant has the strongest sense of smell in the animal kingdom, around five times as many as humans' and twice as many as dogs'.
There are, however, animals that have better hearing than that of humans. Moths have been named as having the best hearing in the world, then Bat, Owl, Elephant, Dog, Cat, Horse and Dolphin.
All birds of prey have excellent long-distance vision, but eagles can see clearly about eight times as far as humans can.
Ten Animals are stronger than man. Leafcutter ant, Gorilla, Eagle, Tiger, Musk Ox, Elephant, Anaconda snake can squeeze something the same as its own 250kg body weight to death. Grizzly bear can lift over 500kg, 0.8 times its body weight.
There is nothing like God. 'Naught is as His exegesis, (He is beyond all comparison,) and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.' Quran.
The human brain is unique and strongest, but is limited. We cannot perceive everything, for example, no one can remember his life when he was a fetus in his mother's womb.
Human brain cannot imagine God. Even prophets asked God for example Abraham asked: `My Lord! Show me how You give life to the dead.' (The Lord) said, `Do you not believe (that I can)?' He said, `Yes I do, but (I ask this) just to reassure my heart." (The Lord) said, "Take four birds, draw them to you, and cut their bodies to pieces. Scatter them over the mountain-tops, then call them back. They will come swiftly to you. Know that God is All-Mighty, All-Wise.' Quran. God said; 'God wants to lighten your burdens: for man has been created weak'. Quran.

Psalm 83: 18 - Jehovah "... you alone are the Most High over all the earth."

God is one for all of us - for you and for me and for all people.
Is the universe your god? Who created the universe or did it appear from nowhere?

Why don't people see the obvious?

In ancient Egyptian Atenism, possibly the earliest recorded monotheistic religion, this deity was called Aten and proclaimed to be the one "true" Supreme Being and creator of the universe. In the Hebrew Bible and Judaism, the names of God include Elohim, Adonai, YHWH (Hebrew: יהוה‎) and others.

The word Hindu is an exonym, and while Hinduism has been called the oldest religion in the world, many practitioners refer to their religion as Sanātana Dharma (Sanskrit: सनातन धर्म: "the Eternal Way"), which refers to the idea that its origins lie beyond human history, as revealed in the Hindu texts.

Have you not considered the one who argued with Abraham about his Lord? When Abraham said, “My Lord brings up the sun from the east, so bring it up from the west.” So the disbeliever was overwhelmed [by astonishment], and God does not guide the wrongdoing people''. Quran

The question presupposes that the universe had an actual starting point, but one might just as well assume the universe always was and always will be. In that case, there would be no beginning whatsoever — just an ever-evolving story of which we’re catching a mere glimpse.
By 1982, Vilenkin had a realization of his own: The process of inflation had to be eternal, meaning that once it started, it never fully stopped. Inflation might end abruptly in one region of space, such as the one we inhabit, but it would continue elsewhere, setting off a never-ending series of big bangs. Each bang would correspond to the birth of a separate “pocket” universe, which might be pictured as an expanding bubble — one of countless bubbles floating around within the “multiverse,” as it’s sometimes called.
“We have very good evidence that there was a Big Bang, so the universe as we know it almost certainly started some 14 billion years ago. But was that the absolute beginning, or was there something before it?” asks Alexander Vilenkin, a cosmologist at Tufts University near Boston. It seems like the kind of question that can never be truly answered because every time someone proposes a solution, someone else can keep asking the annoying question: What happened before that?
In the Bible: “O Sovereign LORD! You made the heavens and earth by your strong hand and powerful arm. Nothing is too hard for you!
The Quran mentioned that: 'We have made the heavens with Our own hands and We expanded it'.
Some people say that the Prophet Muhammed, wrote the Quran, it is not from God! Did Muhammed a cosmologist with modern devices and spacecraft to know this fact?

Col 1:15-16 referring to Christ says, “Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by Him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him and for Him:”

And I’ll refer again to John 1:18, “No man hath seen God at any time...”

and John 4:24 “God is a spirit...”

In the greater context of the whole Bible, every time the word God is used in the above passages, it is referring to the person of the Father. The person of the Son, the image of the invisible Father, who was also born Jesus of Nazareth, is God manifest in bodily form.

So yes, God has a body, but God is also still an invisible “spirit” (because we lack a better word).

"God is a spirit"
There is no confusion about what it means to “worship Him in spirit.” It means to follow His instructions. “To be whole-hearted is to serve God with pure motive, that is, for the sake of the worship itself, and without any ulterior motive. The service of God demands whole-heartedness. That excludes both hesitancy and mechanical observance.”[2]

God is Spirit and we worship Him in the Spirit.

Study your Bible to understand, Who God is.

I’ve had a similar conversation with a friend recently. Three things came to my mind.

There are several places in the bible that state God has walked on earth and will walk among us. I’ve always assumed these passages have meant on legs.

There is also the time God came to Abraham as one of his three visitors. God stayed with Abraham while the two angels went to Sodom and Gomorrah.

I have always thought that John 10:30, “I and my Father are one,” cinched many’s belief that Jesus is God in human form and his bodily form was a “son of God” as are all God’s followers.

Each light speck is a galaxy, some of which are as old as 13.2 billion years – the observable universe is estimated to contain 200 billion to two trillion galaxies.
We live in the galaxy called Milky Way it is 890 billion to 1.54 trillion times the mass of the Sun.
The Milky Way contains between 100 and 400 billion stars (like our sun) and at least that many planets. The largest known star (in terms of mass and brightness) is called the Pistol Star. It is believed to be 100 times as massive as our Sun, and 10,000,000 times as bright!
The LORD created everything in the universe.

The Bible is not a unified work that has come down to us unchanged from its original autographs; rather, it’s an anthology of 66 or 73, books with different origins and literary histories.

I am aware of this, though unsure what it has to do with my comment. I am missing something in your response maybe.

Apparantly God has no gender. He refers to his person as mother and father.
Some interesting info I learned. I LOVE THAT !!!

God is self-existent, self-sufficient, eternal, immutable, omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, sovereign, and infinite. He is neither a mother nor a father.

Colossians 1:16 ESV / For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him.

God is all those things and is called both mother and father in the bible, just as he calls himself Creator and many other things. Why would he even have a gender if he is not a sexual being?

Those who wrote the bible added God is mother and father. It is not in the original bible.
The Quran says; The Jews call 'Uzair (Ezra) a son of God, and the Christians call Christ the son of God. That is a saying from their mouth; (in this) they but imitate what the unbelievers of old used to say. God 's curse be on them; how they are deluded away from the Truth!
