Sometimes despite our best intentions and internal strength we can allow doubt to darken the light of our day. This was my day today. It is frustrating to know, trust and believe yet still be pushed around by doubt.
I believe God is intentional with getting our attention and if we acknowledge this He will help us knock doubt out. At the end of the day when it felt like I couldn’t get punched around by the ‘Should I? Shouldn’t I’ bandit anymore I find an email from an unlikely source that tells me:
“Do not let anybody sway you from taking action on your gut feelings. I have a theory about instinct or gut feelings. I believe it was the Holy Spirit whispering in your ear that the Father wanted you to have peace of mind, without worry sapping the level of energy you need to continue your wonderful, important work. Almost always our instinct is a product of our Guardian Angel or the Holy Spirit – or maybe BOTH! ”
Is doubt knocking you around? Take a moment to pray, offer up the should’s and shouldn’ts and then listen to your instinct.
