I was always uneasy with the idea of a judgmental punishing God.
This idea bothered me for years untill I realized that this was just a lie that religion tells about God.
Now since I understand this I have a much closer connection with God.
He has become my dearest friend.
love and blessings Don

Good one Amelie!
Yes but I married him anyways thinking it was God's will. Now I'm not so sure it was. I thought he was a genuine Christian. He was progressively abusive thereafter. It's never turned out except I still love him but we can't get along and he's too selfish to know what love is. He needs a genuine salvation experience but thinks he has one. Never left his mother which breaks the first commandment of marriage to leave your father and mother! (Never date a man who's never left his parents!) Also, a spirit of oppression from being in contact with evil persons, their words and stuff but God's people prayed and I got relief and reassurance from the Lord that it would be alright. Another time I got really bad news but the same evening God spoke peace to me in the words of the song "He Whispers Sweet Peace To Me". The news should have knocked me off my feet and the other stuff should have made me lose my mind but God gave peace and strength just in time every time and still is holding my hand day by day.

Hmmm well I don't know if this is what you are searching for, but I was thinking one day about Jesus and I just could not picture the crucifixion in my mind. I just couldn't even comprehend in my mind that such a thing happened. I mean all the pieces fit together - we know there was a man named Christ, that people saw him, that there was a Pontius Pilate, that the Romans did not deny that Christ was crucified......... But I just couldn't picture it. It just seemed so mystical. The more I've studied history, though, the harder it has become to picture it. Its very strange - one day I had a dream I met Benjamin Franklin but now I can't even picture in my mind the fact that he existed. The closer I look at history the farther detached from it I feel.................... Strangely.

I don't think it is so much in your spirit as in your soul. Women seem to have a greater ability in that area than men do, its that right brain/left brain thing. Right side of the brain is more intuitive and the Bible seems to encourage men to listen to the cautions of their wives because they can often discern when things are not right long before men can. It often happens in the area of discerning a third party's motives in business or morality. Sorry I can't think of an appropriate example off the top of my head.

I am learning to go to God when their is disquiet in my spirit. God can reveal to me what is wrong. It may be that I am keeping company with fear or doubt or confusion. For this I need to repent and dismiss these spirits, in Jesus name. I walk in love and faith. I can ask God for more love and faith. And I can wait on God in humility until I know that all is well. I can repeat, all is well---until I believe it.
Whatever the problem, I can draw near to God and seek the resolution in Him. He is 'bigger than all my problems.'
Thanks for the question.

It's called conviction by the Holy Spirit.

I have a bit of that right now. I'll e-mail you and let you know how it turns out. I think I might know what it is. Jesus is giving me hints.
