Were you ever sure about a decision, but had that one thought in your mind that kinda throws your choice off? I guess this relates more to relationships. Like you like a person, but they remind you of someone else. You think to yourself "do I only like this guy cause he reminds me of this other guy I onced liked?" or maybe you are in a relationship with someone, but you constantly think of someone else. You question yourself "do I still like her even if I've got someone way better?" Maybe thinking off the subject of relationships. You could be going off to a great college somewhere far from home, family and friends, but you wonder "is it worth it?" or maybe you are taking a test for trig and your failing the class, but the person sitting next to you is getting an A. You ask yourself "should I cheat?"
Yeah, if you are sure about your decisions then you wouldn't be asking yourself questions like these. And when you do ask questions like these, most of the time the answers to these questions are the answers you don't want to hear. Yes I like this guy cause he reminds me of another guy I onced liked, yes I still like that girl, no it's not worth leaving the ones I love to get a major that I could possibly get here, no I shouldn't cheat on this test even if it means my grade will drop.
Second guessing yourself isn't a good thing, but sometimes it isn't bad either. Going with your instincts could be God trying to tell you something. He could be telling the girl that likes this guy that reminds her of someone else that this isn't what he has planned for her. Or maybe He could be telling the boy who still likes his old crush even if he has a girlfriend that God gave him someone better, that God blessed him to be happy with this better person. He might be telling the person going off to college that true homes, family and friends will always be there for you. You've taken care of them, it's now time to take care of yourself. And he might be telling the person who's failing trig that God will be helping you to pass the class. It may not be on this test, but he'll probably send some extra credit opportunities for you.
God is talking to you every day, every second. You just need to take the time and listen. He sends you signs and hints. He helps you 100% through every obstacle you go through. Your questions, your thoughts aren't you talking to yourself, it's God.
You wanna know why I'm blogging about this? God told me to use my gift of writing to tell others what he's trying to tell them. He told me this a few months ago on my confirmation retreat and only now I remembered. Lol. Yeah, so what if I blog every day?! It's not me, its not my instincts, it's God working through me. Cool, isn't it?
He's working through you too. You probably just don't know it. But you will, God told me so.
Day 27: the questions we ask, God always answers them. Even if it's the answer we don't want to hear, He knows what's best for us. The questions God has for us, what answer will we give Him?
