signs: friend or foe?
signs??? is it a good thing or a work of evil? when we ask for "signs" about some stuff, are we really testing God? or does it imply that this is what God really wants to tell us? some say not all "signs" are from God....sometimes, this is used as the evil's way to get us!!!
i would like to share, a certain incident that occurred not so long ago...
i'm the type of girl with confustion with regards to signs...sometimes i ask for signs, but in small decisions lang, like, i want a sign if i shoould go or not, if i should buy this or not....but once in my life, i just tried, asking for signs, for the very first time, about someone....=)
it happened for 3 consecutive times, and on the 4th time....=)
on the first day, as i was doing my job in my work, i just joked, that if in the 3rd time of the random selection of envelopes, and i picked that particular envelope (which i would not be emphasizing), it could mean something (that is related to that someone!)....and so, for that 3rd pick, poof!!!!! it met the "criteria" i was asking... of course, i just thought it's a coincidence...=)
the next day, in a mass i attended, where i finally told my self that i would make a sacrifice and that sacrifice is not to think of "someone" often..... later i found out, he also attended the same mass.....at the same time!!! poof again!!!!
that night, as i was reflecting on the things that happened for the entire day (owz!!!!), i suddenly thought, again with my playful mind, "if the next day and i saw him and we're on the same shade of shirt, it really means something..."...howver, i did not emphasized on that something...thinking that be it positive or negative, i'll be a good sport.....and so, the next day, i really did not pay attention on which shirt i'll wear,(may be unconscious, i was aware that it is not the typical color of shirt "someone" is wearing).....and so, in the afternoon that i saw him......he wears the exact shade of shirt as mine.....i was nervous that time...what could that mean?!!!!
for sometime, those incidents really bothered me....i didn't know if it's a good or bad thing..... i was confused....however, as days go buy, i did not think of it anymore....i do not want to entertain the idea of the sign!
for the 4th sign, whch actually made me think na lang na it's void...wla lang....i just thought of whether txting him or not....but then, since i saw him that day, i decided to txt hm n lng din....but, i got no reply....so that's it!!!!
right now, it's not anymore a big deal! of course it is still, i won't write it here....=)
i jsut trust God and my faith!=)
