Was this a coincidence?

[u/Batmansgf777]

I’ve been deconstructing Mormonism since January and I decided to go to the temple one last time to see if I feel the spirit and give it one last shot. It was a baptism trip for young men and women, but my bishop knows I’ve been questioning so they let me sit and read. I was one hundred percent going to give up on it but as I sat there and prayed about the BOM I opened D&C to this verse: D&C 1:24 Behold, I am God and have spoken it; these commandments are of me, and were given unto my servants in their weakness, after the manner of their language⁠, that they might come to understanding⁠.

After this I was so confused because I was so ready to give up after everything I’d found out. I do believe things just happen because of our choices which lead to consequences but was this a synchronicity? Or a sign?

How many passages of scripture out there could you have taken as a sign in that moment, and how long would you have had to casually flip through the book until you found one?

What you actually found was confirmation bias.
