Do you speak to God?
I do. And I always get an answer.
When I talk to God (or if you prefer – spirit, universe, higher power, whatever works for you) it’s usually either in writing or in my head (which makes me feel slightly crazy sometimes). But whatever I ask is ALWAYS answered immediately. Usually in my own voice – but there’s always an answer there and that answer is not based in my fears or insecurities.
I’ve worked persistently to develop my ability to access my intuition and listen to what it says. And so long as the answer is based in love and a stand for my greatness, I know it comes directly from spirit. So whether you see it as my intuition, higher self or God – I believe that voice is connected to the universe in ways I don’t have evidence for and can’t explain. That’s part of why they call it faith, don’t you think?
There have been (and still are) many times where I’ve ignored my inner compass, which consistently gives me the answers I’m need (although not always the ones I want) and provides incredible guidance. Often this is because my head wants one thing and my heart wants another. Although, time and time again, my heart proves to be right whether I listen to it or not.
It’s interesting how adamant we can be about ignoring this inner knowing or understanding. We seem to be more committed to that disempowering voice in our head that tells us we’re not good enough than we are to being our greatness. Which, absurd as it may seem, makes perfect sense. It’s safer and easier to hang out in our comfort zone wrapped up in our fears where we don’t have to change or do anything differently. But the life you want, if you don’t already have it, doesn’t exist within what you already know. So for those of us who are brave enough to face the unknown with love, change it is.
What does your intuition tell you? How do you speak to God?

My intuition tells me that the place to be is in a loving, supportive environment where my gifts can be appreciated, realized and utilized fully.
I was going to send you a short email thanking you for your help and insight yesterday, but after realizing that I can be liked for who I truely am, and especially after looking at your website and blogs, I have to comment further.
Looking back now, I realize that this is the second time God has placed someone in my path of transformation as a source of wisdom and knowledge. When I look at the chances of me even making it to the workshop, having an empty seat next to me, the guy in the next seat offering it to you, and me starting a conversation with you, I truely know that Gods fingerprints were there. And then to decide to walk over before I left, instead of just waveing and walking away, you giving me your card, and me deciding to look at your website and read the posts on your coaching blog….well, you get the picture.
The subjects you wrote about really hit home for me. Forgiveness, Love, Transforming Fear with Love, and It’s Never Too Late…Wow. You asked me what I do for a living, and whether I liked it or not, and the real answer is NO. l know I have talents that are as boxes, whose contents are wrapped in sheets of missed oppertunity, stored in a dust covered trunk in the attic of my life. Many times I think to myself, ‘why am I wasting my life here at work.’ They could say at my funeral, “He sure stacked the pallets of product neater than anyone else!” Not much of a positive impact on the world.
I too suffer from high enthusiasm when starting something new, but running out of gas after a while. I love to carve in wood, have gotten very interested in Geology and have collected a huge amount of fossils over the last year, am very interested in Science, and would like to help people with addictive personalities. As I mentioned to you, that was the reason I started to take online classes, to earn a degree in Physcology.
Well, I need to go shovel snow, so I will close for now.
I just want to say “Thanks” for the positive impact you are having with me. I think there are many more times in our daily life that we unknowingly influence peoples’ lives, than we ever realize. Didn’t want this to be one.
