Trust your instincts


Ever find it annoying the moments where you know something, you just KNOW and there are those around you who want to talk you out of it? Or want to convince you that you are wrong? Or worse- completely ignore the fact that every fiber in your being, every ounce of your conscience, every muscle in your body is telling you to follow your instincts. I mean, if we can't trust ourselves, who can we trust? God will let us know if the pathways we are following are good or evil. The scriptures tell us that. It also reminds us that when we get the answer- whether it be a burning in the bosom or a feeling of peace on the matter- we need to trust in that answer and live with that answer. Just sometimes, I forget that and I let other people try to talk me in or out of what my heart and my head lay in front of me. I know what I know and no one can take that away from me. I can look for assurance, I can look for support but at the end of the day, what I do with my life is between me and God. And if I can't trust him, I can't trust anyone. So, with that.... I send my love to my best friend who just had the happiest day of her life today. She looked so beautiful and so joyful. That's how it should be. That's how it should it look. That's how it should it feel. When it's right, it's right. Period. Trust me- this is one area where I know what I'm talking about. :)
