AS we continue this series of messages focused of the methods God uses to get our attention let us remember this morning's message directing us to be aware of the fact that God will allow disruptions in your plans in order to get your attention or at least draw your attention away from your plans for a bit. I also hope that you will remember to read and seek in prayer the revelation unto yourself the passage from 1 Corinthians 1-18-27. If we will only take to heart the truth of the word of God and set our sights on Him over the things of the world how wonderful a time we shall have in glorying in Christ and god the father.- -This evening we will look at the truth that yes even tragedies in our lives are allowed by yes our loving and caring God. This can be most difficult for many people but it is a fact many do not like to think of. Yes God is in control again of everything. Yes the very breath we take is a gift from Him. As we look at some of the tragedies from the bible have you considered what part have tragedies played in your life. Could or has God allowed tragedy to bestow you in order that He might get your attention fully back on him in a pleasing manor. Again I want to remind you that as god is in control of all things we must accept that He allows tragedy in our life for a reason. Does it get our attention- Does it bring us to think about how short life is- Does it bring us to terms with the supreme power in the hands of an all mighty God-
