1. Even though I could remember talking to
the Holy Spirit as a kid, when I was an adult
and thought about talking to God, what
came to my mind was: "Who are you to
think that you can talk to God?" But the
truth is, who am I not to? Who are YOU not
to? When we think, "Who am I to talk to
God?" we deny ourselves a relationship
with God and the Holy Spirit. So even
though the thought might arise, "who am I
to think that I can talk to the Holy Spirit?" it
is important to remember that it is just a
thought. It's just something that arises
within your mind when you entertain the
thought of connecting with God's Voice.

2. There are lots of thoughts that arise just like that: "Talking to the Holy
Spirit is impossible Talking to the Holy Spirit is something that only very
Holy people can do Talking to the Holy Spirit is something that takes
years and years of devotion and dedication " All of these thoughts are
untrue and keep you from connecting with the Holy Spirit in your life
When you begin to think about talking to God and hearing His Voice,
become aware of what thoughts arise If you become afraid at the
thought of talking to God, that just means that a thought has arisen within
your mind that caused you to become fearful A fear thought could be as
simple as, "I'll never be able to hear the Holy Spirit " It could be a thought
that says, "I'm not worthy of talking to God God would never talk to me
3. " It could be, "Look at all the things that I have said and done Why would
God bother with me?" Allow yourself to become aware of the thoughts
that arise when you think about joining with God in the Holy Spirit in
dialogue digital hearing aids Do your best to notice those thoughts,
emotions, or beliefs as lovingly and kindly as you can They are just
thoughts that arise They are not the truth They are not a reflection of
you They're just thoughts that arise, these little flea bites that distract you
for a moment When you notice them for what they really are and
respond to them with truth, love, and kindness, you are free to continue to
focus on your connection with God
4. Let's say, for example, that you have the thought: "Who am I to think that
I can talk to God?" You can then remember: "Oh yeah, who am I NOT to?
It's my job to be connected with God in the Holy Spirit That's my job
That's all God and the Holy Spirit would ask of me Who am I not to?" Or
you have the thought: "Why would God want to talk to me?" You can
respond, "Because God created me and God only sees my perfection
God wants nothing more than to talk with me through the Holy Spirit "
"I'm not worthy I've done these things, said these things, or thought
these things I'm not worthy to talk to God," and you remind yourself,
"God just loves
5. God wants to be in communication with me " Whatever thoughts arise,
allow yourself to respond to them with Love and Truth You know the
truth in your heart You know that God only loves you and wants to be in
communication with you So when you have the thought: "Oh, I've done
these things or said these things God does not want to communicate
with me" you can remember, "Actually, God only loves me," and continue
to move past that thought or move on from that bug bite Allow yourself to
continue to move in the direction of connecting with God in the Holy Spirit
It's as if you are maneuvering your way around these little distractions or
obstacles, the little thoughts that arise, but you respond lovingly to them
and remain on the pathway to God
6. There is nothing that can stop you from getting to God There is nothing
that can keep you from your Father Even if you're not sure how to
respond with the truth to a thought that arises, just remind yourself,
"Nothing can keep me from my Creator," and continue to move along on
that path Since it is only a thought that can keep you from hearing God's
Voice, let yourself notice what thoughts have arisen in the past few
minutes Make note of the thoughts that sound familiar or the thoughts
that have come to your mind and allow yourself in the next few days to
continue to become more and more aware of what thoughts come up
when you think about talking with God in the Holy Spirit Really look at
each thought and allow a truthful response to each one to come to you so
that you know no matter what thought arises, there is nothing that can
keep you from having a relationship with God and God's Voice in your life
Focus on this in the next few days and find out how much more
connected you feel to God in the Holy Spirit in doing so
