Signs from God

I appreciate your desire to live faithfully! OCD has a tendency to make things confusing, and because God is a God of clarity (of order and not of disorder) you can pray and ask God for clarity in your circumstances. Also, the best place to see what the will of God is is scripture! Try reading through some of the New Testament books (start with 1 John if you want!) and see what they say. Also, continue doing daily exposures if you know what those are. Those will help with the anxiety that comes with intrusive thoughts. Peace and blessings!

I’ve had VERY similar scenarios, and I can tell you from what I’ve seen… as scary as it may seem now, it could very well be a sign. It could also just be random events, but for me it turned out to be legitimate signs… but I never listened to them. I instead, after talking to my mother, came to the conclusion to ask God for clarity. Full clarity and when ended up breaking up…. And I felt AMAZING. I wasn’t swimming against the current anymore and I finally had peace, so before making a direct “yes or no” to this, I’d take a deep breath… relax… and ask God to give you full clarity on this. I’m so sure He will! Stay strong, you’re a fighter🫶🏼

OCD often tries to disguise itself as a sign from God. Often when I’m trying to figure out if it’s from God I pay attention to how it’s trying to get me to listen. OCD usually has a sense of urgency and a lot of fear behind it, like if you don’t do this thing something bad will happen, often something really exaggerated and awful. In my experience signs from God tend to be more of a peaceful experience or a sense of clarity and love rather than confusion and anxiety.
