A friend of Jordan gave birth to a gorgeous little girl named Ariana a few weeks ago and Jordan has been updating me with pics of the little bundle almost daily. Every second sentence from Jordan has been " Aw Mom, look at Ariana, look at how cute Ariana is, see Ariana". So there's no mistaking why the name struck a cord with me when I went to my local gym class last week.
I walked in and a little bubbly girl stood behind the reception desk and started chatting to me whilst her mom(who is one of the coachs) tried to get a word in edgewise.
I let her ramble on and once she was finished, I immediately said to her. "Do you know that you are talking to a complete stranger?" "I don't know who you are and you have no idea who I am ". "Can I have your name I asked." "She proudly responded and said "My name is ARIANA and you have lovely brown eyes," she said.
At this stage, nothing clicked.
I went on to start my workout and 10mins into it, her mom started packing up to leave. As they reached the door, Ariana turned around and ran straight up to me and grabbed me around the legs and said. " See you later Brown eyes"! " She looked deep into my eyes and immediately I felt at peace and calmer than I had the entire week. I suddenly felt like everything was just as it should be. Everything was OK.
Why had this little girl picked me out of all the women in the gym to run up to? This got me thinking all the way home and then the light blub went on! Ariana! Why have I kept hearing that name so much lately?
I rushed to the computer when I got home and googled Ariana. Thank God for GOOGLE!. And there it was - ARIANA - very holy one! My angel came to deliver a message.
I immediately realised that I had just received my sign - A sign that all my worries and fears are in vain. Everything is going to be okay.

We are always praying, asking for signs and sometimes we are so busy focussing on the fact that we think are prayers are not being answered that we completely miss the signs, the answers to our prayers. The answers to our prayers come in different ways, different forms and via different channels. Dont always expect to get your answer via SMS!
Angels are everywhere! Just take the time to open yourself up to them.
Much love & keep those eyes open!
