I'll say this much, no one said Christianity was going to be easy.
Let me tell you a story of my very first sign of God.
It was a cold January night about a year and a half ago. My Christian friends had been trying to get me to know God for months and I was beginning to get a little discouraged. So I sat up for over a half an hour staring out my window, and prayed for the very first time in my life. I prayed mostly for a sign that he was there and real. After time went by, I was recieving nothing but silence, so i went to bed.
The next morning I went outside to catch the bus, and I was startled by what I saw. On the driveway was a yellow, dried flower that smelled a sweet sent. I looked all around but I didn't see anymore. I couldn't understand how on earth it got there. It was winter, and there were no flowers to be seen! Then I remembered the prayer I said last night when I asked for a sign. I was dumbstruck. This flower was a sign from God!!
but there's more...
Seeing the bus pull up i had to put the flower down, cause I didn't want to take it to school with me. It was a very windy day, so I figured the flower had blown away from where I had left it. I was in for a surprise when I got home. I got off the bus only to discover the flower in the very same spot where I had left it. God kept it safe for me.
To this day I still have that flower. And whenever I feel weak in my walk with God, I remember how he showed me that sign, the miricle he showed me. That day started my walk with God. I wanted to know everything I could about him, all because of one little flower.
