I started this blog as forum for expressing how I find God in my everyday life. My hope is that other people will participate and write about where they find God, also. Please feel free to post even if it's only a few words. Anywhere you find God is an inspiration to us all.

The Butterbutt
It was a really cold day, but I found a spot of warmth in a "Butterbutt"! (Also known as a Yellow-rumpled warbler, but that's not nearly as much fun.) My sister-in-law got me interested in birds, and we saw several Butterbutts at the little park off The Woods road when she visited early last year. I got such a kick out of it when she told me what they were called (what little bird knowledge I have has come from her). They're adorable birds, but I hadn't seen one since. Then today, I noticed a little bird flitting around outside, and when he turned... there it was! He flashed the little yellow spot on his tail - his butterbutt. (I just have too much fun saying that!) It was an unexpected joy, and that is where I found God today.

You're right...just saying Butterbutt in my head brightened a rather gloomy day. Sometimes God finds us but sometimes, especially when we're having a rough day, we have to make a conscious effort to find Him.
