God will speak through anything...
I've heard that saying before, but I really do believe God speaks through anything now. You might think I'm crazy, but I want to tell you how God talked to me. Tonight I saw a fly on my KJV Bible. I went over to my Bible and I tried to blow the fly off. The fly would not get off, no matter how hard I blew, it still stayed on the Bible.
I believe God is trying to tell me. No matter how hard the winds blow, no matter how hard life gets, stay on the Word of God. The Word of God will help us through any of life's problems. The Bible is full of truth and has every answer to life, if we just search the scriptures. I pray that this may help or encourage someone. God Bless

In these verses below, the ass turned away from the angel of the Lord three times and saved Balaam. If it wasn't for the ass, the angel of the Lord would of slain Balaam. God chose to get his attention with an ass.
Numbers 22:21-33
21 "And Balaam rose up in the morning, and saddled his ass, and went with the princes of Moab.
22 And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.
23 And the ass saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and the ass turned aside out of the way, and went into the field: and Balaam smote the ass, to turn her into the way.
24 But the angel of the LORD stood in a path of the vineyards, a wall being on this side, and a wall on that side.
25 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she thrust herself unto the wall, and crushed Balaam's foot against the wall: and he smote her again.
26 And the angel of the LORD went further, and stood in a narrow place, where was no way to turn either to the right hand or to the left.
27 And when the ass saw the angel of the LORD, she fell down under Balaam: and Balaam's anger was kindled, and he smote the ass with a staff.
28 And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Balaam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times?
29 And Balaam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee.
30 And the ass said unto Balaam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.
31 Then the LORD opened the eyes of Balaam, and he saw the angel of the LORD standing in the way, and his sword drawn in his hand: and he bowed down his head, and fell flat on his face.
32 And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I went out to withstand thee, because thy way is perverse before me:
33 And the ass saw me, and turned from me these three times: unless she had turned from me, surely now also I had slain thee, and saved her alive." KJV
