How can I—just a regular, limited human—possibly relate to an unlimited, infinite G-d?

I used to struggle with this question, too.

I’d feel lonely, overwhelmed, and disconnected, wondering if my human experience even mattered.

But then I learned something simple and powerful:

We don’t connect with G-d by becoming powerful or smarter. We connect by meeting G-d on G-d’s terms.

What Three Feelings Build Your Bridge to G-d?

Here’s exactly how it works:

1. Awe: Like standing in front of an ocean and realizing how huge it is, awe lets your mind and heart know something bigger than yourself.

2. Love: Think about someone you care deeply about.

You naturally want what makes them happy.

Connecting with God means caring about what God desires (a relationship).

3. Yearning: Have you ever really missed someone?

Yearning means wanting closeness even if it feels beyond your reach. These feelings—Awe, Love, Yearning—build your bridge to G-d.

What Can You Do When You Feel Disconnected?

If you’re feeling disconnected right now, try this:

1. Pause for a moment.

2. Think about one thing bigger than yourself that fills you with wonder.

Like a type of kindness that happens, nature, etc.

3. Just feel it deeply without trying to control it.

Then silently say, “G-d, I’m here, ready to connect—even if I don’t fully understand.”

Because connection isn’t about understanding everything—it’s about being open enough to feel everything.

What Do You Actually Need to Connect With G-d?

The takeaway:

You don’t need infinite understanding. You just need an open heart and mind. Ever felt this kind of overwhelm?

Questions people ask

Why does connecting with G-d feel impossible sometimes?

It can feel impossible because you are a limited person trying to relate to a G-d who is unlimited. That gap can leave you feeling lonely or overwhelmed. But connection does not come from becoming smarter or more powerful. It comes from meeting G-d on G-d’s own terms, using feelings you already carry inside you.

What do awe, love, and yearning mean when connecting with G-d?

The article names three: awe, love, and yearning. Awe is noticing something bigger than yourself, the way an ocean feels huge. Love is caring about what someone you love wants, and yearning is missing someone even when they feel out of reach. Noticing these feelings in yourself, a simple kind of awareness, builds your bridge to G-d.

What is a simple way to reconnect with G-d?

Pause for a moment. Think of one thing bigger than yourself that fills you with wonder, like an act of kindness or something in nature, and just feel it deeply without trying to control it. Then silently say, ‘G-d, I’m here, ready to connect—even if I don’t fully understand.’

Do I need to fully understand G-d to feel connected?

No. The article’s whole point is that connection is not about understanding everything, it is about being open enough to feel everything. You do not need infinite understanding, just an open heart and mind. Letting go of the pressure to have it all figured out is its own kind of self-compassion.
