Subtle Signs

Be on the lookout

for signs from God.

Perfectly timed when needed.

Await, to be awed.

Not coincidence, but occurrence.

Something especially for you.

Designed for your understanding.

A message that’s true.

It’ll be self-evident

That it’s spiritual stimulation.

For these subtle signs,

God’s the only explanation.
