How can I remove a space before the first word in a sentence using find and replace, or GREP?

Right, so I put a document in inDesign to a word document, and it has a space before each first word in a sentence. It's really annoying and I need a quick way to get rid of them. I did not know how to do it with find/replace, but I don't know that there is a way to GREP, if someone can help me. I've included an image so that people can see exactly what I mean.http://i.imgur.com/1GcrmEf.png

Your example shows a space at the beginning of each paragraph, which is easy to remove with the ^ character, which means "beginning of the paragraph. If ^ \s will find a single of any kind at the beginning of a paragraph, as in your example. But the word you used was 'sentence' not 'paragraph' which can be more difficult. Surely if you are one of those one-space-after-point, you want to keep this space? What I don't get your example? Maybe your drive is one of those linebreak-at-the-end-of-each-sentence people.
