Skitto's proposal would seem to diminish both God and life. Life is certainly extraordinary, and does indeed include every experience that has ever happened to us. We already have a word for that - life.
So why confuse it by calling it God, too? What special characteristics or abilities does this God concept add to your life? It would seem that it is not intrinsically modified, so it's an extraneous and unnecessary addition. If there were a God, certainly they'd have some sort of measurable effect, and one would hope, extraordinary powers - omniscience and omnipotence are the common ones, especially in Abrahamic religions.
If God becomes this diffuse word synonymous with "human experience" or "my own personal experience", then its useless.
