Hello New Chapter
Thank you for reading and sharing your thoughts.
I completely understand the "trust" issue and I would never in any way want you or ANYONE here to just believe "me".
You mentioned you are an athiest. Okaay. If you ARE at peace with that and find fullfillment and joy in your life...GREAT! It is different with each individual. I know that there are some that have become athiest from the WT because of the pain, bitterness and lies that have been fed into them, but they may NOT necessarily want to have chosen this path. They are angry at God for allowing them to be misled. I understand the anger also...
But to answer your question,
This is how is works for ME! I ask....try to listen with an open heart and spirit and let that voice that some feel is just a conscience or that little voice inside that some joke about...that gut feeling, I let it direct my steps. (not always i will admit.. "I" get the way)
This may not be how it works for you. That is toyally okay.
If you do not use the same "faith door" (the Christ) as I do... that is fine also!
Fruitages that make us happier people and able to make a difference in the world is tested out in this way......
Aside from GOD altogether... Go inside yourself You may consider yourself to be a kind, loving individual! Okay?
Then as a guide if what you manifest in your heart and in your actions on a day to day basis is "Love" then everything associated with that will be a life pattern (we will fall at times)
LOVE will manifest itself in
kindness, mercy, forgiveness, compassion, pity, natural affection, etc....products of love
The opposite is "HATE" and everything it will manifest in your life pattern.
HATE will manifest itself in being...
selfish, merciless, unforgiving ourselves and others, no pity, no compassion, jealousy, unkindness etc.....
so for me this is how "I" test out what I hear. For you, it may be different!
The important thing is the outcome of our actions.
