I get it all wrong!

[Mermaid1]

Ever since my husband died my life has been up and down with a lot of turmoil and confusion in it. Especially when it comes to new relationships. I pray to God for guidance and direction and try to listen to His still quiet voice but I seem to be getting it all wrong. I use my prayer language, praying in the Spirit and allowing the Holy Spirit to take over when I don't have the words to pray myself. I don't understand that when I pray in this way, I misunderstand what God is saying to me so often. When a person allows the Holy Spirt to take over in prayer, your prayer then comes directly from God. How can it be possible to misunderstand this? I need a lot of help and prayer in this area. Can you help me please?

Just relax. We're human, so we're prone to misunderstanding God. I would say that job number one would be to put 100% of your focus into your relationship with God instead of focusing on new romantic relationships (I'm assuming that's what you meant by relationships...I apologize if I'm assuming incorrectly!). Spend a LOT of time in the Word. He's laid it out right there for you, it's there to understand! =)

Thanks for the advise, Manna. I must have heard God right today, because that's the message I'm getting also.
