Waiting for Answers
"We are full of questions and we want answers, answers that just aren't available to us yet. Our Higher Power will give us the real answers when we can handle them, not before. If we manufacture our own answers, our self-will will only create more questions.
Wishes and answers are granted and guided by our Higher Power-provided we keep close enough to be ready for them. Am I willing to wait for the true answers? Higher Power, help me to accept my questions and to wait for the true answers. -Day by Day

I really struggle with knowing whether that inner voice that I hear is that of my Higher Power or of myself. Does anyone have any suggestions for discernment? I have heard that it is a "small, still voice." I am not sure whether I have ever heard it. Thanks for listening.
