Everyone sometimes wants a sign from God if they are on the right path. What could these signs be? Like a rainbow, like a butterfly, like a figure formed from a cloud, an unexpected pleasant surprise, a promotion or raise, a lucky penny discovered, or even a four leaf clover.
Of course there is the opposite of God’s disfavor. What could these ominous signs be? Thunder and lightning, ominous clouds, natural disasters, eclipses, a black cat passing in front, a broken mirror, etc…
But does God Guide people? Some say God is always with us, even providing angels to guide us. Others say if there is a God, God is a spectator. Of course there are people that take the middle road, and say God helps us sometimes, especially when we ask in our prayers.
Some say God guides us by illness or disorders of the body. For instance, have you ever had your heart palpitate uncomfortably when you were stressed, or were angry at someone? Have you had knots or pain in your stomach from these incidents? Could they be signs from God to change your behavior or thoughts? I remember one time seeing flashes of light from the corner of my left eye after speaking ill of someone. It lasted a couple of days, but was it a disapproval from God?
Can we change our behavior or thoughts and recover from illness? Science can prove that having positive thoughts do affect the health of the body. If so, our thoughts reflect our health. Positive thoughts bring upon a healthy future, and negative thoughts bring upon a unhealthy future. Sounds like the concept of holistic medicine.
Science tends to explain many of the occurrences in life. But again if we were to believe in God, God makes science possible. God uses science and the laws of nature in working miracles. That illness may be explained by science, but it may also be God’s personal guidance to help you!
