Pondering Perceptions on God

I read an article recently that had a quote from Facebook:

"The problem with putting God in a box is it leads to trying to squeeze those around you into the same box & if they resist they are labeled as outsiders. Some people find security & the illusion of control inside a box. History has proven at some point many outgrow the box… then often mistake outgrowing the box with resenting the box. I no longer resent the box because it was a necessary part of my spiritual growth.

I can't say I agree with the entire article, but I certainly had to stop a moment to think.  I have experienced this very type of painful experience-outgrowing the box.  I think there had to be a grieving period around that for me.  I sometimes missed the box, and wished I could climb back in.  I wanted to go back to a simple idea of God that I felt comfortable with, and knew the answers to.  And there was some anger, well, lots of anger.  But now, I can wholeheartedly agree with the last sentence in the quote. "I no longer resent the box because it was a necessary part of my spiritual growth."  I suppose in most ways this is the goal-getting from resentment to appreciation. 

My next question has to be...have I just put God into a bigger sized box?  Luckily, I can be ok with that for now, and know that I am exactly where I need to be.
