Ever Present Everywhere All the Time

I have heard it said that 
Hell is separation from God
and death is separation from God. 
Is there anywhere in the Universe
where God isn't?
Is there ever a separation from God
which does not occur
inside our thoughts
causing the separation?
It is not written that
in Him we live, and move, and have our being;
that God is in all, through all, and in all?
What is meant by omnipresent
if not everywhere all the time? 
It is not written that God is one?
Is there ever a time I could say
God is over there . . . 
But not here?
"Christ in us, the hope of Glory"
"Where ever two or more are gathered
I will be in their midst"
"Lo, I will be with you always
even to the end of time."
Why are we awaiting the return of Christ
When Christ never left? 
If he and the Father are one
He never could leave,
and being that the Father is ever present everywhere
all the time, 
is Christ, who is One with the Father, not here now? 
Why do we think that Jesus is over there
and we await his arrival from there to here?
Is it not a limiting thought
to suggest that God
who is omnipotent and omnipresent
is over there and is powerless till he gets here? 
Is it not a limiting thought
to suggest that I
who am a partaker in the divine nature
am limited in my power?

I'm very weary of "Christian" mythology.
