I suppose the trust factor comes in where we have to discern the difference between that "gut feeling" being the Holy Spirit, and not our own influenced by the heavy barrage of marketing and external influences. I suppose that's why, though I'm definitely more of an "instant" type guy ... sometimes I force myself to wait ... because if it's the Holy Spirit, I know it won't go away ... but if it's my own self being seduced by a kajillion external factors, I can wake up a day or so later, and it's not that important anymore. Then again, you can miss an opportunity of the Spirit that has a short window that way, too! thanks for making me think! Fred Great post, Shane … I suppose the trust factor comes in where we have to discern the difference between that “gut feeling” being the Holy Spirit, and not our own influenced by the heavy barrage of marketing and external influences.

I suppose that’s why, though I’m definitely more of an “instant” type guy … sometimes I force myself to wait … because if it’s the Holy Spirit, I know it won’t go away … but if it’s my own self being seduced by a kajillion external factors, I can wake up a day or so later, and it’s not that important anymore.

Then again, you can miss an opportunity of the Spirit that has a short window that way, too!

thanks for making me think!
Fred
