On a day when Little Girl is feeling sad and lonely, she seeks comfort under the swaying branches of her friend, Grandmother Willow. Grandmother Willow gently invites Little Girl to sit quietly with her feelings until, in the space around her feelings, she begins to sense God.
I thought God was up in heaven, said Little Girl.
Grandmother Willow smiled. Many people think God is somewhere else because they have a hard time finding God where they are.
Little Girl thought for a while. I want to find God! Can you show me how?
Grandmother Willow delights in teaching Little Girl to find God in her feelings, in nature, in her pesky little brother, and especially in herself. In this beautifully illustrated meditation, an ancient and very wise teacher reminds us all that God is everywhere and everything is in God.

MaryEllen Weber has sought God throughout her life. As a child, she
experienced Divine Presence in nature and cozy spaces. This longing
eventually led her to earn an MA in Transforming Spirituality from
Seattle University. She is a passionate spiritual mentor who knows
we can never be separated from Divine Presence, only asleep to it.
As a spiritual director, she accompanies people with their inner
work of transformation. Now coming full circle, MaryEllen is
joining her voice with Grandmother Willow's to teach children that
God is everywhere and indeed, everything is in God. MaryEllen lives
near Seattle with her husband, Jim, and Grandmother Willow.
Kari Vick's search for the divine has always drawn her out of
doors. By keeping still, open, and aware, she's witnessed
butterflies flitting among prayer flags in the Himalayas, found
delicate blooms upon the Arctic tundra, and received wisdom from
the eyes of a tenacious eagle. Time spent in communion with people
from around the globe has coalesced in her belief that God, the
Creator, is boundless. The award-winning illustrator lives with her
husband, Jim, on the north shore of Lake Superior in Lutsen,
Minnesota, heartened by the rare Trout Lilies that return, without
fail, every spring along the creek by her garden.
