We are actually God in the growing stage. God works through O-D-U Action, i.e. Origin-Division-Union Action. God is living and growing with His wife (object partner). The growth is happening in the physical world through us, the people, who are little Gods divided according to our sex, but uniting again on a higher level. Maybe that's why we say that after death, we return to God.
After all, you can boil down creation to just two entities: God and His wife.
And that's maybe also the reason that even in the spirit world, you can't see God. The perfect God is the ideal, the reality is that God and His wife are on the way. And it's all very enjoyable!... ;-)
