We all rely on signs to confirm our beliefs. This can be as simple as believing in clouds as a sign of a coming rain. It can also be the blooming of a rose as a symbol of answered prayer.

Jesus tells us today that there are signs we refuse to see. He calls us to be more aware of them. When we sense ourselves losing interest in God’s word, is it due to physical fatigue or more the mental and spiritual kind? We should constantly make the effort to discern.

There will be movements leading us towards God and there will be forces against. If we remain in His grace, it’ll be easier to determine what would draw us away from His path. At the same time, it will be God’s grace that will keep us on course.
