Is this a Sign? or Coincidence?

Since we made the decision to "perhaps" make a big life change there have been several things we've noticed. Now, of course we've been praying for the right direction...and feel that if it is God's will that all doors will open...if it is all our will then doors will slam shut. I personally have outright asked for signs...you know, knock me over the head type of things.

I truly believe that God is in charge of our destiny...but that he gives us brains and emotions which gives us the "smarts" in which to use...sometimes we control them "our brain", sometimes they control us "our emotions". Sometimes "our" choices can greatly improve our lives and sometime they can greatly hinder our growth...both have ripple effects, good and bad.

So...

Is it a sign or coincidence that the day after we made this decision that our neighbor had family arrive from the same city and state that we have our eye on?

Is it a sign or coincidence that on our favorite movie "The Christmas Story" which we watched after our decision, just happens to take place in the same state we are contemplating a move to?

Is it a sign or coincidence that a moving truck with the state tag to the same state happened to be on the same interstate at the same time just recently?

Is it a sign or coincidence that every time we turn around we see, hear or come across that state either in a book, Internet, or television?

Is it a sign or coincidence that last night both hubby and I had dreams that we had sold the house and were moving?

Is this a sign? or Coincidence? ...hmmm, that is the question!
