One of the best ways to build and stretch our trust muscles is to notice the divine signs all around us. Even if we don’t always recognize them in the moment, these divine signs are there guiding us all the time. You may never know why you make a wrong turn, get behind a slow driver, or pick up the phone and say to a friend something that comes from out of the blue.
