Grace walked out of her front door and shivered. She knew that it was going to be cold this morning. She just didn't believe just how much.
She was running late for work. It was the first time that she forgot to set her alarm. So she didn't wear a heavier coat. But what she really felt bad about was she didn't say her morning prayers.
As she arrived at work, things seemed even more busy and fast paced than usual. Suddenly two men and a woman appeared with guns. They ordered everyone down.
The woman then grabbed Grace and ordered her to fill their sacks. Grace complied with what she was told. She didn't want herself or anyone else getting hurt.
Fearful of the situation, she began praying out loud. The woman became irrate with her and demanded that she stop. When Grace started praying for the woman, she shot her in the shoulder.
Grace fell to the floor as the others screamed. The trio exited the building and were immediately met by authorities.
Grace and the others received care and were fine. Grace knew that she would never begin another new day without the word and prayer.
She asked God to forgive her. One month later she received a note from the woman who shot her. She thanked Grace for her prayers and apologized to her. Because of her faithfulness she has now given her heart to the Lord!
