His human-like form, resembling the resurrected Jesus, resides at a place near Kolob, according to a Mormon Prophet. Yet many believe that He resides everywhere, in the trees, in the air, in the mountains. I believe both are true. This is why. According to Mormon doctrine, Kolob (a visible star in the sky) rotates once for every 1000 spins our plant takes around the Sun. Therefore, if God lives in the center of all creation (which I believe He does) that means that the closer you get to Him the slower time moves until you reach Him, where time stands still (all things are before Him).
2 Peter 3:8 "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand ayears, and a thousand years as one day."
God can also reside everywhere, because if time stands still you can be in multiple places at once. If you can be in multiple places at the same time why not be everywhere? So does God dwell in the heavens? Yes. Does He dwell in our hearts? Yes and we have our own god there too (the real us). Does He dwell in every living thing? Yes, He is in all things and through all things.
D&C 88:41 " He acomprehendeth all things, and all things are before him, and all things are round about him; and he is above all things, and in all things, and is through all things, and is round about all things; and all things are by him, and of him, even God, forever and ever."

What Does God Look Like?
God (in referring to the supreme creator, the Father of our spirits) is an enlightened, exalted being of light. Jesus said: "He that seeth me hath seen the Father"(John 14:9) What do we know about Jesus' body. We know He was mortal, that he died (a very mortal thing to do) but we also have accounts of Jesus after his death appearing to people, people that He knew during His life, and they didn't even recognize Him. Something had changed, His body was different. It was not spirit, yet it did things that mortals could not do. In fact the bible says that he appeared in a room who's door was locked.
Mark 9:2-3 says that Jesus' transformation after death was preempted by a transfiguration before His disciples where He showed Himself as He really is. John said: His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his aeyes were as a flame of bfire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his avoice as the sound of many waters."
Yet, remember his own disciples didn't recognize Him later. What does this mean? God's body is as a holograph that can be changed into whatever He wants it to be. It is as John said about God's dwelling place "And I saw as it were a asea of bglass mingled with fire."

Where Did We Come From?
"When He prepared the heavens, I was there: when He set a acompass upon the face of the depth: When He established the clouds above: when He strengthened the fountains of the deep: When He gave to the sea His decree, that the waters should not pass His commandment: when He appointed the foundations of the earth: Then I was by Him, as one brought up with Him: and I was daily His delight, rejoicing always before Him;"(Prov 8:27-30)
We lived with God after we were born as spirits. Before that we were intelligences in the universe, having no form. God created us in His image, spiritually, and in his likeness, physically, through earthly parents.
So where did we come from. First, from nothing. Second, from the place where God dwells. Third, from this earth, and on to the future.

Who Are We?
We are god's, children of Gods. (John 10:34) We are an intelligence, clothed in a spirit, clothed in a body. What is an intelligence? It is light, a particle of light that has existed and will always exist. it resides in the pineal gland within the brain. It is unseen light. It has perception and logic. It is indestructible, invisible, and contains perfect intelligence and truth. It is the all-seeing eye at the top of the pyramid of your brain. This intelligence existed before you were born. This intelligence existed with other intelligences until it was called into existence as a spirit. "The Spirit itself beareth awitness with our bspirit, that we are the cchildren of God": Rom 8:16. God is the father of our spirits just as we have a father of our physical bodies. So when we say we are gods we are right. When we say we are complete, we are right. When we say God created us, we are right. What does create mean? To organize things that already existed into a different form.
