Have you ever felt God whispering something to you, and you’re just so sure it’s only in your head, and it most assuredly couldn’t be God telling you to do it. The thought just doesn’t seem logical and surely you are missing the message? Shouldn’t it be someone else? God could really find someone better suited for the task.
You go about your life ignoring the gentle whisper. Then it comes back again. Nah, it couldn’t be, now you’re just thinking you want to do this, so you are convincing yourself that it’s God “saying” it. But you choose to go on about your daily life ignoring this thought.
Rats, then it returns again. And you begin the mental arguments that go on and on, sometimes for months. Then the proverbial 2 x 4 to the head slaps you so hard you just cannot fight it any longer.
Yeah – that just happened to me last week!
So what on earth do you do with it? Well, you can continue on the path of ignoring it and live in the inner turmoil of knowing you’re not walking in obedience to God OR, you can chose the better path and give up the fighting!
I’m Tickled Pink to say that I have finally given up the fighting!
I began moving forward on a dream I’ve had that God has been pushing me more lately to just “go for it!” Paths have changed, doors have opened and it seems the time has come.

What about you? Have you ever had a dream that you weren’t sure it was something you should pursue? Have you felt led by God to do something, but second-guessed if it was truly from God? I would really love to hear your thoughts on this. Okay, mostly for my own encouragement…but possibly someone else needs the encouragement of those of you who have followed God’s leading and stepped in faith with your dream. Share in the comments, I’m hoping I’m not the only obstinate child here!

Hi Tammy, So proud of you for stepping out!!! If you haven’t read it yet go read Holley Gerth’s post from yesterday on obedience, it will be one to go back to when the going gets tough. It was just the kick in the pants I needed to get back on the horse. Love you!!
If I read it, Lani, do I HAVE to ride a horse, too?? I’ll go check it out! Thanks.
Love that you are following your dream – the one God gave you! Love ya!
Thank you, my dear! Glad to have you along praying with and for me!
Oh how hard it is to ignore that little voice in my head. Bad things don’t happen because I push aside the little niggle of a voice, but I am amazed God is so patient He waits for me to be ready for my destiny.
Yup! So glad for his patience…’cause I’m one thick-headed child!
This just happened to me. God used someone else to whisper to me and at first I tossed my phone to the other seat in my car saying “Yeah right”. But He wouldn’t let it leave me. Now I am stepping into a great BIG dream that I didn’t even remember dreaming but excited about the adventure.
Oh, Cynthia—would love to hear all about it! Will you share, soon?
