My main question is do you believe in signs from God?

I would like to think that God provides signs for us. I think God has provided signs for me in the past. I believe He has provided me a few in the last several days as well. So, secondarily, do these look like signs to you (one is a literal sign lol). These are based upon my most recent ex that I have written about before on here.

Here are the signs:

Sign 1:the other day I went by my church and decided to pray about some things. I prayed for a sign one way or the other about my ex. I then go out to my truck to leave. On the radio was a song named after her--thought that was odd, especially since I very rarely hear that song. So, feel like that could be a sign.


Sign 2: Saturday my brother I were leaving a store we went to on vacation. I had changed the radio to a station but couldn't tell what the song was at first (my brother and I were talking). I look up and see a place called named after her. Then I heard the song hat was on. It was "keeper of the stars"--the song she and I had said was our song. Again, this song doesn't come on very much at all.


Sign 3: the other night getting close to the hotel, we were in an area that had several streets named after girls. I had said to myself that it would be neat to find one named after her. I had even thought of just riding and searching or googling to try to find one. I decided I didn't have the time for that. So, coming home yesterday, not too far from the beach, I had not really been paying attention to streets we passed but I randomly looked up at one and it was a street named after her . Then, within 5 minutes I saw one named after me. Never seen a street with my or her name on them.


So, could these be signs? I look to music for a lot of my signs of you can't tell, lol. I'll note her name isn't weird, but it's not a common name...like when you look for personalized things like key chains for example, he name usually isn't on there. Lol. I'll also note that I've prayed that if we are meant to be together that it will happen in God's plan and timing.

So....... you are, maybe, waiting for God to carve her name in your chest? Do something about this...... OR ignore it. (God will likely honor whichever choice you make.)

I think the sign to pay attention to is the one where you're thinking about her all the time.

Definitely thinking of her all the time. I'm sure she thinks of me often also, and probably in a good light. Not really looking to rehash the split though. To me the one that meant the most was the first, where I prayed and it happened. I also know coincidences happen...which is why the other two are important. I was looking at what people said about signs after the first and someone mentioned that for them, they come in 3's...which is my favorite number for many reasons. Right now I'm just trying to be respectful of her. She had tons on her plate and lots of stress with her new job and promotion she got. I know it may not work out at all, but it will be God's will regardless

You can find signs when you look for them. When something becomes a consistent thought in your mind you will find things relating to it. Not because they suddenly appear but because your mind is attuned to noticing things relating to it that it overlooked before.

Short answer: Sure, but it takes discernment to weed out a sign from a psychosomatic experience.

Has anyone here ever received what they believe to be a sign from God? If you'd like to share, what form did it come in?

I believe in sign..but the sign can come from God or not (from your own desire or...) you will know the difference if the sign mix match with His words/bible..
