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 hearing aid 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

3. " It could be a thought that says, "I'm not worthy of talking to God God
would never talk to me " 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 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

4. 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 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

5. 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 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

6. 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 There is nothing that can stop you from getting to
God There is nothing that can keep you from your Father

7. 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
