God the ever-present

It may be a trifling thing, but as worshipers who claim that God is all-powerful, all-knowing, all-seeing, does it make sense for Christians to speak of God "being present here", as if that's worthy of comment? Let's be humbly honest on this. We can't invoke God. God is everywhere, and God does what is perfect. In fact, God inhabits and accepts us solely through God reaching out to us first to enable reconciliation.

God didn't vanish when the temple was destroyed.
