The past few months have been pretty rocky with hearing from God. Just to clarify, when I say “hearing”, I don’t actually mean hearing an audible voice of God. It’s just something Christian people say and it can be very confusing. People can interact with God in different ways, the way I hear from God is intuition. This means that because I know that Jesus is in me and because I know that I have the Holy Spirit, I know that my thoughts are His. Lately, I haven’t seen anything special. I haven’t felt anything special or been asked to do anything special. I haven’t felt like my intuition has been in tune with the spirit.
This blog sounds like rambling, but this is everything that’s going on in my mind and I just want to let you in.
Anyways, I feel like me and God aren’t making any progress. Everyday I ask Him to show up in a big way or in a supernatural way. And everyday I haven’t seen what I want to see. I haven’t felt what I want to feel. I haven’t heard what I want to hear.
With that being said, all of these things start with “I”. And as I am typing this I am realizing that maybe God just wants me to be content with Him, nothing more and nothing less. It’s normal to not hear from Him. It’s normal to feel like you aren’t growing or aren’t making progress. It’s normal to feel like you are in a funk! Maybe this will last weeks, or years, or in my case, months, but it’s causing me to try something different.
So, in light of all the frustration and the lack of progress, I’m starting a new way to connect with God! This week I have started yoga! Why? Because I’m extremely inflexible and it has always been a desire of mine to have a healthy and happy body:) To my surprise, I feel so much better. Not only physically, but spiritually because I am actually seeing some form of progress and I am also finding different ways to connect with my Father!
In conclusion, if you are feeling down or in a funk, try doing something different! Something you normally wouldn’t do! God wants us to figure out different ways that we can be creative and connect with Him! Don’t stay in the funk, get out of there, you are so not alone.
I’m safe and sound here in Nicaragua! I still am feeling sick, so prayers for that! Also, my mom is coming to Nicaragua on the 23rd of April, prayers for safe travels for her! I love you guys!
