Have you ever been driving along and missed a turn because you didn't see the sign? We've all done it, and it can happen for any number of reasons. Maybe the sign was too small or poorly lit, or you had other things on your mind and got distracted. There can be many reasons, and most of the time it's no big deal. You just circle around or find another way to get where you're going. 

But it's not just when we're driving that we need signs. We frequently watch for them in other areas of our lives as well, especially our spiritual lives. We face a variety of choices every day, and most of us seek some sign that we're on the right path; that the choices we make are the right ones. But here, too, we can lose our way, and at a much higher cost. Thankfully, if we're willing to listen and to follow, God gives us the signs we need to stay on track.
