Gut feelings, inner guidance, inner wisdom, intuition, inner GPS, instincts, a 6th sense, and the Holy Spirit are just a few terms for that inner knowing that guides us and that we can always trust to lead us in the very best way. It knows of a much larger perspective that we can’t see through human awareness. The more we listen to it, the more we learn we can trust it and the clearer it becomes.
When pilots learn to fly, they must undergo instrument training to fly in low or no visibility conditions. When flying in these conditions, sometimes the human senses will tell them things that aren’t true, even that they are upside-down when they aren’t. They have to learn how to read their instruments and trust them no matter how they might feeeel; they have to learn how to fly on instruments. Listening to our inner guidance is like learning how to fly on instruments rather than relying on our very limited human understanding.
It is always whispering within…always. Meditation and prayer (properly understood) are ways to open ourselves to hearing it. Getting quiet and simply listening for its whispers help us to learn how to hear past the noise to the ever-present guidance that is always walking with us, behind us, and before us.

Beautiful, that inner Voice has lead me on some interesting paths that I wouldn’t have had courage to take my whole life. Thank God for that!
