"I wish you could've seen the Daughters of Mary the first time they laid eyes on this label. You know why? Because when they looked at her, it occurred to them for the first time in their lives that what's divine can come in dark skin. You see, everybody needs a God who looks like them, Lily."

Indeed. I know, too, that I am God. I am everyone, I am everything. I am you, and you are me. We are all God. We all look like each other, when we look at each other's essence instead of each other's skin, gender, sexual orientation, whatever.
