Was that really a sign?
Am I just looking for meaning?
What if I'm imagining it?
Those questions aren't necessarily a bad thing. Discernment matters.
But there's also a difference between discerning an experience and automatically talking ourselves out of it because we can't prove what happened.
Sometimes we can pause. Notice what we received. Pay attention to what it brought up in us. And allow it to be meaningful without immediately needing to explain it away or explain it completely.
We don't have to choose between unquestioning belief and complete dismissal.
There is room to be curious. There is room to wait. There is room to let something matter to us without having all the answers.
Sometimes the most discerning thing you can do is simply notice and wait.
