God's Leading

Often we think the Holy Spirit (God) is leading us one way or another. We must be careful though, not to confuse our subjective feelings with the Spirit's leading. Being led by the Holy Spirit involves desire to hear God's Word and the readiness to obey God's Word. Moreover, it involves the sensitivity to discern between your feelings and His promptings?

Many have made choices based on how they thought God was leading them. Unfortunately, even the most spiritually mature will find themselves wondering, "What did God say? What did I hear?" And they begin to question what was really leading them - God or their own selfish desires. We must get better at questioning that before making our choices in life.
