What is God really saying?

Sometimes I wonder what God is saying, if he's actually speaking at all. You see, I'll pray about something (and sometimes for long periods of time!) and think i have an answer, a conviction about a certain situation, or a sense of peace about it. And that's all good for a while. Then a little while later, something happens that is completely the opposite of what I thought the answer was previously.

So then i wonder..... was it really God who spoke in the first place? Who gave me that 'sense of peace'.. was it a fake sense of peace? Was it just me hoping for the best.... was it my desires speaking? .... Who the heck was it?! and what's the go now?

I just wish sometimes the voice of God was clear..... and I knew beyond a doubt it was Him. Because the times that I thought it was Him, it turns out completely different, leaving me to question if it was really Him in the first place.

How do you tell the difference between what God wants and what you desire?

I'd really like a Moses style burning bush right now....

For Him Alone

The problem with Moses-style burning bushes, I guess, is how long you would have to sit or stand in silence watching said bush before you realised that it was not burning up ;o) That particular sign may not be as obvious as we think.

Keep going strong, my friend. Really enjoy reading.
