God is not a genie, nor a magic 8 ball. He doesn't give you confirmation of anything over random events. This isn't even about PAX; I don't care if you don't go, but looking for signs by casting the dice is a pagan practice, and essentially what you're doing. The Bible instructs us to not search for signs in such ways. Gideon asks for signs that were impossible. He asked for the dew to be in the fleece, but not the ground, and for confirmation, asked for the ground to be soaked with dew, but not the fleece. I'm concerned for you and your family because looking for signs in things of this world is dangerous. You're supposed to listen to the Holy Spirit inside of you.

[This post is being written as the events happen.] That's what I have been carefully doing. And I've been hearing that I don't have enough faith. I just now went to the Daily Bread website to find the devotion it was that coincided with two other things saying the same thing at roughly the same time. But I found something better: The devotional today was "Believing in Advance". I just finished reading it, and it's saying- No, never mind. You're right. It's about believing in advance and waiting for an answer, which is what really tries our faith. I was trying to test my faith with an immediate answer, when I can truly test my faith by waiting for something clear.
