Do you truly believe God is with you 24-7? Do you rely on the Holy Spirit to guide you? Do you listen when God speaks to you through his word, through other people or through other means? Do you allow God to fully take control in tough times without taking it back? Do you do what God wants you to do? How do you respond to the Lord's desire to meet with you? These short narratives are true events in the life of the author. They are easy to read stories that are filled with God's messages in many everyday situations. While many of these stories are serious in nature, there are some elements of humor sprinkled throughout them. When these experiences have been shared during Sunday school classes, in small groups, or in one-to-one situations, people have often attested to the benefits or assistance received from hearing these messages. These short stories of God's direction and protection can be read over and over providing ministry and inspiration each time they are read. The author is reminded of God's promises each time he shares these episodes. As you read each true story, may you sense the Lord's presence and be blessed every time you read and reread them.
