While working on converting some computer files into another format, I pulled up a program I have used often to do this. I expected no problems. Imagine my shock when the program not only didn't work, but it gave me no hint as to the problem. I played with it for a couple of hours, figured I'd think more clearly in the morning, and went to bed expecting everything to be fine with a new day.
It wasn't. For five hours, I did everything I knew how to make the conversion proceed properly. I won't go into all the computer tricks I tried, because none of them work. Finally, (sheesh), I decided to pray about the problem.
My prayer was simple. I knew there was one divine Mind that governs all, and I was part of that "all." There was no answer too hard, too complicated, too impossible, because God gives us all we need, and that includes every right idea. The work I was doing on the computer was necessary, and nothing could stand in the way of accomplishing my task. I needed to be still and listen for the angel message.
It came, almost instantly. The answer was simple and the task proceeded to be completed in about fifteen minutes. Not only was I thrilled to have the job done, I was even happier that I'd taken my thought in the right path and acknowledged God's control and government in every aspect of my life and work. To say I was grateful is a gross understatement.
