While spending some time with my granddaughter she noticed the screensaver on my phone and wanted to know about the lion, lamb and dove. I took a few minutes to explain them to her and then we happened into a church where I told here when she prayed she could ask for anything. Boy was I surprised by her request of God and absolutely shocked when it was answered a moment or so later!

Every once in a while I wonder if God hears my prayers, sees my frustrations, understands my fear, or if he even knows I exist. I try to stay positive and do the “self-talk”, meditation, and relaxation techniques that are so frequently suggested.

As we sat down to our meal he was sharing with me all the thoughts and feelings that he was having that day over certain issues. I could tell he was agitated and fearful all at the same time. He was talking fast and almost not making sense sometimes and obviously just not in a good mental spot.

I was quickly in my head and just asked for help for this man. What happened next is what I consider to be a “God Shot”.
