help! does god send signs to people?
since no one is answering my "god speaking through nail polish" question i thought i would post in a different way. im thinking i wont be able to sleep until i get some opinions on this. i know im probably being silly but i keep an open mind and need someone to either tell me to knock it off or that yes sometimes god sends signs to people in order to get them to listen. please help me figure this out

 I dunno if it is a sign, but people generally only believe what they want to believe.

 Why do you ask questions to which you already know the answer?

I believe that God sometimes communicates to people through certain signs. Whether or not he used the bottle of nail polish to speak to you is not for me to say. My question to you would be, are you seeking and searching for answers? If so, then I believe you will find them...maybe not in a bottle of nail polish, but certainly in ways that will be clear to you.

im really just trying to calm myself and try to convince myself that it was just a freak occurence. but i cant be sure! guess i'll never really know the answer so this whole question is moot.

A few years back an entire group of people thought god communicated to them that they should commit suicide so they could join the mother ship on the other side of the Hale Bop comet.

For what it's worth to you, I believe there is no coincidence.
Is it a sign, is it an occurrence that created something within you, or is it nothing more than a variation of a fortune cookie?
Only your cooperation will reveal if the event was a "sign"
Time definately will tell.

Just an fyi Lindsey, anytime someone thinks God is telling them to either kill themselves or anyone else, the message isn't coming from God.

Nicolepsy,
This is a very good point.
What is the "fruit" of this "sign"?
Maybe, your answer is a question.
What do you think it means?
