Yes. We tend to define God according to the way we see ourselves. All that we mean by personality, however, cannot be attributed to God. God is universal, we are personal. Following the analogy, electricity is universal, it will express through any number of appliances. The appliances are “personalized” expressions of the universal. In the same way we would not attribute the characteristics of a blender to electricity, we cannot attribute characteristics of personality to God.

An energy waiting to be expressed. Could we go as far yo say that the “personality ” we attribute to God is our on sense of our individual personality?
