subtle sign

There are times when God will send you a subtle sign of His presence. For me one of those times was when I was at Lifecare Hospital. Being there day after day tended to get a little repetitive and discouraging...so the Lord sent me a sign. It was not a big, overt thing saying "hey look at me". It was something very simple, just like the still small voice He used with Elijah.

I had a room with a view of the "courtyard" and could see the other rooms of the hospital and I noticed that the frame of the outer windows were in the shape of a cross. It was God's way of saying to me, "Son, I am with you...my Son suffered so that you wouldn't have to...I will never leave you or forsake you." And it was the first thing that I could see when I opened my windowshades in the morning....

That little reminder kept me going and gave me encouragement and served as a reminder. So when you have a chance, look for the subtle signs that God gives to remind you of His presence, that He is there with you and that He has you in the palm of His hand, and as Yeshua (Jesus) said, My Father, who gave them to Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father's hand. (John 10:29)
