In their supplications, the earnestly seek to know: Can one even <em>have<\/em> a conversation with God?<\/p>\n<p>God herself tell us <em>yes.\u00a0<\/em>His words to humanity are clear:<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I talk to everyone all the time. The question is not to whom does God talk. The question is, who listens?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Early in <em>Conversations\u00a0with God-Book One\u00a0<\/em>we are told that\u00a0God communicates with us most often through feeling. Feeling is the language of the soul.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you want to know what\u2019s true for you about something,&#8221; God said, &#8220;look to how you\u2019re feeling about it. Feelings are sometimes difficult to discover, and often even more difficult to acknowledge. Yet hidden in your deepest feelings is your highest truth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>God also communicates with thought, and often uses images and pictures to do so, which makes thoughts more effective than mere words as tools of communication.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to feelings and thought, God also uses the vehicle of experience as a grand communicator.<\/p>\n<p>When feelings, thought and experience all fail, God uses words to communicate. Words are the least effective communicator; they are most open to misinterpretation because they are merely utterances \u2013 noises that stand for feelings, thoughts and experience. They are symbols, signs, insignias. They are not Truth. They are not the real thing.<\/p>\n<p>Words may help you to understand something. Experience allows you to know. Yet there are some things you cannot experience, so God has given you other tools of knowing (<em>i.e.<\/em>, feelings and thoughts).<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ironically, you have placed so much importance on the Word of God, and so little on the experience,&#8221; God said. &#8220;In fact, you place so little value on experience that when what you\u00a0experience of God differs from what you\u2019ve heard of God, you\u00a0automatically discard the experience and own the words, <em>when it should be the other way around.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Your experience and your feelings about a thing represent what you factually and intuitively know about that thing. Words can only seek to symbolize what you know, and can often confuse what you know.<\/p>\n<p>Many words have been uttered by others in God\u2019s name, and many thoughts and feelings have been sponsored by causes not of God\u2019s direct creation, and many experiences result from these. So, the challenge is one of discernment \u2013 the difficulty is knowing the difference between messages from God and data from other sources.<\/p>\n<p>Here, in God&#8217;s own words, is a basic rule: God\u2019s message is always your Highest Thought (that thought which contains joy), your Clearest Word (words which contain truth), your Grandest Feeling (that feeling you call love). Anything less is from another source.<\/p>\n<p>The next question is whether God\u2019s messages will be heeded. Most are not. Some because they are too good to be true; others because they seem too difficult to follow; many because they are simply misunderstood; and most because they are not received. God\u2019s most powerful messenger is experience, and even this you ignore.<\/p>\n<p>Your world would not be in its present condition were you to have simply listened to your experience. The result of your not listening is that you keep re-living it, over and over again. For God\u2019s purpose will not be thwarted, nor will God\u2019s will be ignored. You will get the message, sooner or later. God will not force or coerce you, however, for She has given you free will &#8212; the power to do as you choose &#8212; and He will never take that away from you.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In this time of ever increasing turmoil on our planet, people everywhere are turning to God, begging, hoping, praying to hear God&#8217;s message for themselves and for our world.
