Mental Worship

How does God usually get your attention?
Has God reveled himself to you? How do you know?
What is a recent Word God has said to you? What are you doing with it?
If God were to answer the next thing you ask him, what would you ask?
Has God ever used hardship as a way of rescuing you?
What do you have to do more of, or less of, to hear God better?
