What does God want from you?

Listen ... He's telling you.

By Shirley Paulson

Something Happened In My Office a few years ago that helped me realize that I didn't have to be a victim, no matter what the situation.

One morning as I got to the office, I went to pull up the blinds as usual. Just as they reached the top of the window, they came crashing down and landed full-force on my arm. It hurt a lot, and I couldn't move my fingers. I felt there might be a bone fracture.

Whenever I get hurt by anything, I'm in the habit of turning quickly to God for help. There have been so many times when God has helped me, that I trust He is always there for me. When I pray, I ask God to send me some inspiring message that will help me find direction or peace. So, in this situation, I started to pray right away.
