Signs

I wrote a post a couple of months ago about something that has been weighing on my heart, seemingly out of nowhere. I prayed about it pretty fervently for a while, and then life got in the way and it kind of dropped to the wayside of my brain. The last few weeks, it has been popping up again more and more, and I was just praying to God, if this is what you want for me, please show me. Then today I got a sign in the most small of places. It is amazing to me how sometimes God's plan isn't a big and bold sign, but rather, something quiet just to see if I am listening. Someone I respect very much had written a blog post on this issue over five years ago and she was given advice from a friend: start making note of when you get signs and see how they all come together later on. So I'm using this blog to do just that. Yesterday was the day I read that blog post, ending with the author saying "if you are even considering this, DO IT!", and today when I went through a drive-thru for lunch, the side of my cup displayed a message asking for support for this very thing I have been praying about. I'm paying attention, Lord.
