Word prompt--VIBE
Five minutes to free-write about it
-------------------------------------------------
VIBE: A distinctive but intangible quality surrounding a person or thing (Vocabulary.com). -- Distinctive feeling or quality capable of being sensed--e.g. good, bad, or weird (Merriam-Webster dictionary).
That is what the promptings of the Holy Spirit feel like to me. It's that still small voice within that, if I am sensitive to, points me in the right direction by alerting me as to whether something or someone has a good vibe attached to it or not. However, in order to benefit from its guidance I need to trust God and obey--even when it goes against what my own senses or intellect would like me to believe.
Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not
depend on your own understanding. Seek his
will in all you do, and he will show you which
path to take. (Proverbs 3:5-6, NLT)
Dear Sandra, I love this Scripture verse in Proverbs.
