There are lots of different ways people talk about a Creator or creative intelligence behind existence or try to define the concept.  I'm not sure how helpful these descriptions are.  If there is a Creator, perhaps if you go somewhere beautiful in nature by yourself, and ask It.  If It exists, perhaps it could tell you in some way that you might find more satisfying than anything someone might tell you to believe.  If there is a Creator you probably would not even need to go anywhere special to find it.  One interpretation might be to say that the deities, angels, demons, devils, and so forth are elements of our psyches, perhaps other ego states or elements of part of what we might call our "unconscious minds," although it does not necessarily mean they are not conscious or powerless, it just means that you are not usually conscious of them in your mind/body/world.  The words and myths could be describing processes in our brains.  Prayer can also be thought of as a form of self-hypnosis.  You are going into a quiet peaceful state of mind and communicating with other levels of consciousness within your mind.  There can be powerful healing and insight gained from that activity. However, it does not seem necessary to me to give it a bunch of labels and words or a religion.  Just appreciating music and babies, and beautiful scenery is much more meaningful for some than wordy descriptions, although -what- it means might not be clear.  It seems to always remain somewhat elusive if you try to pin it down.  It could be something beyond our capacity to fully grasp in our normal states of consciousness or any state of consciousness.    You don't even have to call it God.  It could just be a felt sense of connection with the universe and your awe and appreciation for it.  That is one way of thinking of it. It seems that the character(s) and personalities ascribed to it can take as many forms as there are people.
