Asking for Signs

Sometimes you have to ask, you know.

Not for the subtle or minor signs, the sort of thing that kind of dissipates into the night with a sigh.  No, sometimes you have to ask for a big sign - a large one, as big as the fleece that Gideon used before God.

Why?  Because you do not want to mess anything up.  You truly want to make the best sorts of decisions.  And sometimes those decisions have consequences.

So you ask.  You summon up your courage and ask "God, I need a sign.  I need a definitive one.  I need something that will truly guide me in the right decision to go."

And then you wait - believing, not just hoping, that such a sign will make itself apparent.

"If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." - James 1:5
