whenever i find myself at a crossroads, i pray for guidance. when i was younger, this meant that i'd literally ask God to please give me a sign. and like clockwork, i'd always receive one.
for instance, throughout my teenage years, whenever i'd be struggling with a decision that i believed to be life-altering (c'mon, i was a teen), i'd specifically ask God if He would reveal the answer to me. preferably in a clear manner. and every sunday, the pastor's message would hit home, as if God were directly speaking to me.
it has been this way all my life. and even though it never fails, i am still stunned each time i stumble upon a "sign" without looking, and especially by how amazing it is that i can have this relationship which transcends anything i've ever known. i know skeptics would say, well it's all up to interpretation or what can be perceived to be a sign.. but nonetheless, i believe this truly happens. that's what faith is after all, isn't it?
just last night, i prayed extra hard for something that's been troubling me for awhile, especially in the last week. and then today, i got my sign (through another fortune cookie, no less):
"Pick a path with heart."
i instantly felt at peace. and if that is all i need to feel some comfort (even for alittle while), then i will believe it to be true.
