Signs That Make You Wonder

I don't believe coincidences are, well, coincidental.

For example, in the last day I have had two occurrences of them.

One was mention of the Milky Way, that beautiful cloud of stars across the dark sky, caught my attention twice from two vastly separate sources of conversation and reading.

The other was the town of Greensboro, North Carolina was mentioned in two separate and vastly different books I'm reading.

I don't know what these mean, but I believe coincidences can be signs or a way God is wanting to speak to me. I try to stay aware and notice these things when they happen.

These two coincidences might not seem that remarkable, but they are to me. They fit into the category of signs that make me wonder.

Does this happen to anyone else?

Have a beautiful day, friends!

Coincidences: Is God Trying to Tell Us Something?

So do you think God doesn't speak to you? Perhaps you need to be aware of how He can speak. Today, I did the old "close-your-eyes-and-open-your-Bible-and-point" method.  It was exactly the encouragement I needed. You see, I'm getting older and wondering how effective anything I do ever is. Right after that thought went through my mind is when I pointed to this:

They will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, proclaiming "The Lord is upright; he is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in Him." (Psalm 92:14-15)

Coincidence, you say? I don't believe in coincidences anymore, except to define them as God revealing Himself in our circumstances.

A sign? A coincidence?
Just a cloud?

Pay attention to “coincidences” and signs this week. They are a way God speaks to us, assures us of His presence, and they can help guide us to what is ahead.
