It means: "God is where you find Him, Her, the Being".
So, if a blade of grass or an ant or a person you sense God around you see God in that person place or thing or being.
One of the most amazing experiences one day is being remote where no people were at all. I was driving my 4 wheel drive to a CDF Lookout in the 1980 when people were still paid for being Fire Lookouts. Though we also owned several businesses at the time I took this 6 month a year job because I had 3 teenagers at the time who needed good health care and I couldn't afford to buy health care insurance then but the state of California gave us incredible health care as a part of this job even eye care and dentistry which was pretty amazing at the time.
So, on with the story. As I drove to my mountain lookout in Central California I was already 10 miles away from the nearest person on this hilly ranch land with cattle. The sun was setting as I came on duty and I saw this amazing Buck Deer (like something out of Bambi with the majestic way Bambi's father looked) and this buck deer was so present in his body and likely had never even seen a human being before and didn't even recognize that I was there at all. And he was present in a way that was majestic and amazing in a way I had never seen any being be before.
I saw God in this Buck Deer and I have never been the same since this experience.
When you really see God manifesting in an infinite amount of ways you are never the same again.
So, being a mystic is being present enough in each moment for God to surprise you in amazing ways of wonder and overwhelm in any given moment.
Being surprised by God and what God is capable of makes your life a life of wonder and amazement which makes your life worthwhile living every moment.
Wilderness has always been my church where I can worship God being in wild wild nature where God is primal.
So, these moments with God are overwhelming and precious and life Giving in a way beyond any words.
By God's Grace
