How does God get your attention?


How does God get your attention? 


For example, I was at work the other day and I was outside and the sun was HOT .  I had not prayed that day and I was waiting for lunch time.  Then some clouds came by and covered the sun and I thought to myself, thank you God.  And then I realized that I had not prayed that day, so I started to pray. 


I was just wondering how God may grab your attention when you mind if off somewhere else.

He often gets my attention whenever I read my copy of the Living Bible by my bed, late at night, after I get done talking with you guys in the chat room. Take last night...I had just went offline, took off my clothes, and climbed into bed for some sleep. I was a little upset and feeling lost about how my life was turning out. Then I remembered that I haven't done my nightly reading in the Psalms that helps me sleep. I opened my Living Bible and I came across Psalm 37. I was feeling very tired, so I decided to just read this one psalm and call it a night.


The way the Living Bible translated it spoke volumes to my heart about God's love and care for me. I began to feel so much better and relaxed that I fell asleep halfway through my reading of it! I awoke after a few minutes of sleeping and read the rest of it, feeling as if God had written this one psalm JUST FOR ME!


I can always turn to God's word for help and hope to get me through each trial in my life!

God usually uses music to get my attention.  I am more aware of Him through music than any other medium, including most sermons!!

Agreed the music....


A chance meeting with someone (another Christian perhaps) and you talk


A stressful moment or happening


Coming to a beautiful serene place in nature


Best Regards
