MY FAITH THAT I WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF, COUPLED WITH LISTENING TO MY INNER VOICE FOR DIRECTIONS AND ASSURANCE, DOES HAVE THE POWER TO MAKE ME FEEL PEACEFUL AND PROTECTED AND TO EXPERIENCE THIS HARMONY.

To reach our inner voice we must give up our attempts to solve problems with our own conscious, intellectual, busy minds.

To follow intuition requires our desire to seek help from within, as well as our willingness to be quiet and listen.

The less we pre-judge and the less we are sure of what outcome of any situation will be the more open we are to an acceptance of what happens.

I had taken the first step necessary in finding my inner guide and that was to be still and wait for the answers to come.

The source of this knowledge is far beyond our own conscious thinking ability, but not beyond our unlimited being.

There is a power if us that is of god. We can reach it quite simply by just letting go of all the babble and churning within our minds - reaching below this noisy level to the peace and strength that constantly abides in us.

The basis for the first voice decisions is often fear.

I know i will be taken care of.

Let all thoughts other than a desire to hear pass through our minds unresisted.

No-one who already thinks he or she knows can truly ask.

We need to be patient - the answer will come at the right time. We cannot assume that the time is now because we are ready.

If in doubt, keep listening.

When we start to resist ideas, judge them and then defend against them, we create a dam that builds pressure in our minds and stops the flow of all ideas.

It is important to search for answers within and to follow your individual path to enlightenment.

Didn't get much more than this.

This helped with figuring out spiritual matters that were concerning to me. I will read it again!

Like most books of this nature, the author does not tell you what you are listening for or what to do when you hear nothing. He shifts the blame to the hearer. Many a sensitve soul has struggled to hear the still small voice.

I liked this book enough to buy the two books by Lee Coit that followed this one (Being and Accepting). Short, easy read.

We don’t know anything. Trust in your strength. And listen to the flow of the universe.

I love how he shares his path and learned a lot about living in the moment from all of his books.

Great little book for learning to listen to and act on your inner wisdom/intuition. Simply told and easy to absorb. Bought this book many years ago and re-read it from time to time to remind myself of the importance.

This book is an excellent resource for learning to pay attention to the wise presence within us, and discerning between our thoughts and feelings, verses Spirit's guidance

Encourages to trust one's intuition.
