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.

Green Light From God
We said goodbye to Jeff's cat Calvin today. He had been sick for quite a while, but took a sudden turn for the worse in the past couple of days. Needless to say, it was very difficult; sad and emotional. Even though we knew it was coming, the end was hard. So as I drove to the vet, I was wondering where I would find God in this day. We strongly suspected but didn't know for sure till we got there if this would be the end. I was going over this in my mind as I drove, wondering if we were making the right decision to put him down. I had just finished a prayer and was approaching a stoplight that in my memory has always been straightforward red or green. I had to make a right turn and when I looked up, there was a green arrow pointing to the right. Obviously, that green arrow has always been there, but I can honestly say I've never seen it before, and the timing... I believe it was God giving me the go-ahead. Saying, "Yes, you're making the right decision; it's going to be okay. Calvin is in My hands now." It may seem like a strange sign, but it was very comforting to me. There were still many tears shed as we said goodbye, and I know there are many more to come, but there's also a peace. A peace that I found in a green light from God, and that is where I found Him today.
