I’m one of those whacky people that hear God speak to me. When I first was saved, it was because I heard Him speak, changed my whole life! Not an audible voice by my ears, but a quiet whisper, and I wrote them down. I was alone, but some beautiful Christian people told me that He could, i believed them and He did speak! the funny part is though , that just prior to hearing Him and my recognizing Him, I heard the same voice say to me ‘don’t sit there’ which I ignored, sat down and was promptly bitten on the butt by an ant! So what I realized is that once I recognized Him it was much easier to distinguish. As you said, it is a ‘knowing’ but also He speaks to us like any Father his children. I have no doubt you hear Him, but possibly like no one has been able to show you that you recognise. And it’s perfectly wonderful that no matter how we describe it He is absolutely involved in our lives! Loving people was my first church, there the Lord taught me all about Himself, what He looks like, what His heart longs for, his deep love and compa**ion. He speaks in so many ways, but he doesn’t mould Himself to our image, we must be free enough to yeild to His absolute boundryless nature! No He is nothing like any human I’ve ever met, not even me, He is much too smart!
Please don’t shut off completely to hearing His voice, it’s much easier than crazy people make it out to be!
I hope I’m not rambling and you think I dissaprove of what you wrote! Because I definately don’t! I agree so much!
Thanks again, I am enjoying your posts!
