A spirit is a being that has understanding and free will, but no body, and will never die. "To whom then have you likened God? Or what image will you make for Him? (Isaiah 40:18)

Thy knowledge is become wonderful to me: it is high, and I cannot reach it. (Psalm 138:5-6)
When we say that God is all-present we mean that He is everywhere. "Whither may I go from thy spirit, or whither may I flee from they face? (Psalm 138:7)
Although God is everywhere, we do not see Him because He is a spirit and cannot be seen with our eyes. "God is a spirit; and they that adore him must adore him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24)

God's loving care for us is called Divine Providence. "Cast all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. (I Peter 5:7)
