My Signs

On Sunday I blogged Fear Not. I wrote that on Saturday night based on what I felt coming out of my heart and soul. I had not read about fear or had something come up in my life regarding fear, that prompted me to write it.

Each day my morning consist of multiple sources of devotion including two emails, one from The Universe which I like to say that’s God talking to me, one from the Enneagram which tells me how to be better, three books two of which include scriptures and a devotion app including a short video from Joyce Meyer. Never are all sources related. Not once has any of the content been related. They are usually about different subjects, topics, verses, etc… however, Monday morning several were regarding fear. I call it synchronicity (the simultaneous occurrence of events that appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection) which are signs telling me to be aware, to comfort me, confirmations.

Here’s my Monday devotion

“You will face situations where you are overwhelmed and thrown into despair. Despair can take you within its grip at any moment, leaving you hopeless and helpless. But regardless of the circumstances or how it originates, fear should always be conquered with faith. Come to Me when you are full of fear, facing overwhelming unknowns, or in the midst of trouble. I AM here to release your fears and fill you with My peace. You don’t need to live in fear. It will keep you from walking in faith and hold you back from My greatest blessings in your life. Trust in My promises to you. Face your fears with the faith that is grounded in My Word. The promises that I’ve made you can conquer whatever battle you’re facing. Trusting in My Word will take down every stronghold that challenges your faith. When fear consumes you, come to My throne of grace and allow Me to embrace you with My love and calm you with My peace. Trust Me to help you, protect you and provide for you at all times and in all ways. There is nothing to fear, I AM here. Don’t be afraid. Just stand still and watch the LORD rescue you today. Exodus 14: 13 (NLT)”

And here is my Notes from the Universe

Do you see it? FEAR is the word that keeps coming up. I blogged about it Sunday, then it came up three times Monday. That’s not coincidental, that’s the assurance I’m being shown that no matter what happens, don’t fear it. The teacher showed me the symptoms of fear, that I may not be conscious of knowing. It’s not anything to overthink, it’s a moment of gratitude to say “thank you God” for loving me enough to show me the signs.

As I have written, the signs are always there. They are there to teach us, comfort us, direct us, warn us, inspire us. Are you aware of the signs around you? We must slow down and look for the signs that are always there. Don’t dismiss the synchronicities in your life. Be grateful for signs that are given to you.
