This is something that I really haven’t addressed as of yet. Asking for signs. Many times I have asked for signs from God. He never disappoints and the signs always come and totally amaze me. This post is meant to get you thinking and maybe help give you some ideas of how you can let God and your helpers (spirit guides, Archangels, Guardian Angels, etc.) play a more active role in your life. Of course always required is an open mind and believing.
A couple weeks ago I asked God for help with controlling my emotions by giving me a what would be like a tap on the shoulder meant to say “Hey, you need to chill.” To make a long story short….although I have come a long way when it comes to my personal development and making mental, emotional and physical changes in my life, of course I am not perfect. I have a just turned 5 year old that sometimes pushes me to the very edge. I of course want to be one of those people who sends out almost nothing but positive energy and vibes but alas the 5 year old breaks me at times. lol. How do I let myself get sucked into yelling matches with a 5 year old? lol. It takes a lot to push me over the edge so it doesn’t happen very often but when it does it is something that bothers me. It bothers me because tomorrow isn’t promised and if I am not her tomorrow and want that last day to be one where no matter how I was treated by anyone I gave unconditional love.
So I asked God for help. I asked him if he could remind me when I am getting close to the edge and need to pull back. I gave examples of what I was talking about. Flashing lights, sounds, and turning certain things on and off (my printer is often turned on and off and I have known people who’s computers have been turned on and off, browser windows opening by themselves and onto specific websites, etc.) to mention a few ideas. Well that convo with God was a couple of weeks ago and I had almost forgetten about it. On Friday my best friend that I haven’t really talk to in a couple months came over and we spent a few hours catching up. I admit we were gossiping which is a no-no (I feel that because sometimes it’s negative) when all of a sudden the lights flashed. Yes, could have been a power surge but I have gotten those often and it is usually quick on and off of power. This was very different. This was like a slow-motion flash. The lights did not go off all the way. They pretty much dimmed to almost darkness and kind hung in the state for a moment. I could tell it freaked my friend out a little.
Then today…I was arguing with my 5 year old (I know I always say 4 yr old but he had a birthday on the 6th of March and he thinks that is some magical age where suddenly he has become a grown man that can call the shots and now willingly eats veggies. Yes he set the age of 5 to be the age where he eats all vegetables lol.) So I was saying something negative about his grand-parents, my parents, who are very controlling in every way. I was very frustrated and being very vocal about it. I was in his room at the time and neither of us was standing by the door and suddenly this decoration that I have hanging on the out side of his door swung back and forth widely three times. We both stopped talking (yelling) Â abruptly and looked at the door. My sons says to me, you did that cause I didn’t do it. I was further away from the door than he was and immediately knew what was going on. I took the cue and shut up with my negative whining about my parents.
Other times when I have asked for a sign of something I have gotten various things. I am an air sign and get many signs that way. The first time a hawk. Two cardinals chirping wildly got my attention and got me outside. Once outside I swear they just looked at me as they sat then quietly and then I saw it. I had never seen a hawk that up close before. Of course it was a mouth hanging open speechless moment. Over the next few months me, that hawk and the male and female cardinal got more familiar with each other. At one point I momentarily doubted myself. I had one of those moments where I thought maybe I am crazy or just imagining things. So I stepped on the back porch and asked God if I could have a visit from the hawk. Damned if the hawk didn’t come within minutes. So I never of course doubted the signs again.
Another way I ask for help is during the night. I ask for help being waken and knowing when my son needs me. The most memorable was when I got a vision of his bed empty in the middle of the night after my dog started barking. I raced to his room and opened the door and the first thing I saw was an empty bed and of course my heart stopped. Then I looked down and there he was…asleep on the floor.
Ask for help with things in your everyday life…and know that help will come.







Hi, I just wanted to leave a post about something amazing that happened to me. About 3 years ago, I left my husband and moved into an apartment with our 3 year old daughter. I was asking for a divorce, and I had already started seeing someone else (who I am happily married to now with a beautiful baby boy). Anyways, this was the most stressful, painful part of my life. Going through a divorce is just heart wrenching, especially with a little child involved.
My family and I were also in great discord. My mother did not think I was doing the right thing and was no support to me whatsoever. I was so down, sad, stressed, and depressed. My mom called and we got in a huge fight. I was telling her thanks so much for kicking me while I’m down. I didn’t feel like I could take one more ounce of stress and pain without completely losing my mind.
I got off the phone with my mom and collapsed on my bed crying and fell asleep. I had a dream. I was riding a bike, it was evening. This was 3 years ago so I don’t remember every detail, but I remember most of it and everything important. So, I was riding the bike and all of the sudden there was a huge light in the sky, bright enough and awe inspiring enough to make me fall off my bike and look up. I was on the ground looking to the sky and these huge beautiful clouds with light coming from them started to form. It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. The light pierced through the clouds and they separated. I was in complete awe, I couldn’t move a muscle. Behind the parted clouds in the sky, a huge envelope became visible. Yes, an envelope. Like a letter. And it was for me. It said on it “Ephesians 1:2″. I instantly felt an overwhelming sense of peace and love, and then I woke up.
As soon as I woke up, I grabbed my bible to look up the verse. I had never read this verse before or heard of it at all. The book of Ephesians in my bible says, “the book for the discouraged who feel abandoned and unloved.” Just that alone had me amazed. The verse Eph. 1:2 says,
Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
I am still amazed by this dream. I actually received a message straight from God at a time that I needed it most, and it could not be put more clearly. The two things I so needed. Grace-freely given and unmerited favor and love of God. Mercy, pardon, spirit to regenerate and strengthen. And peace-freedom from strife and anxiety, stillness, serenity.
And the verse said To you, From God! And it was on an Envelope in my dream!! I don’t think there could have been a more perfect verse in the bible for me and I dreamed it!
Melanie,
That was so beautiful and awesome! Thanks for sharing that. And glad to hear you are happy…with lots of love in your life.
