When you are trying to make a decision, how do you determine if God
is guiding you or if someone/something on earth is pushing you in a
certain direction? I often struggle with this issue and have been known
to say, "I'm sure that's what God wants me to do," even though deep in
my heart I am unsure.
Today's reading and scriptures
remind us that the sheep know the master's voice - and thus we should
know our Master's voice! The passage from Ephesians has some ways to do
that such as to live a peaceful life, be patient, humble, and gentle -
and serve others by bearing their burdens.
As part of
my training in spiritual direction, I also know that I MUST spend quiet
time with my Lord, listening for His voice - and also studying His Word.
What are ways that you discern the voice of our Lord over the many
voices we hear on earth?
