So much is said about testing, and praying, and the fruits of the holy spirit being peace, love, joy etc and that you'll know what the right course of action is, whether that's the way to go, if you get this.
Well, does it work in reverse? Does the absence of those fruits indicate it's not a good choice?
I've been praying for one opportunity for many years, and I now have the opportunity. Had a bash at it. I was good. It could and will lead onto something more, the thing I wanted. But, the spark's not there. The joy, the love, the peace. Just non existant. The whole situation was completely devoid.
Now, it might just be my own self doubt and I need to give this time. Everyone is telling me to go for it, and try it. But at the same time, this, is, well, how can I say, fairly black and white. I feel so sure that now I actually have this opportunity, it's actually the wrong opportunity for me. There's something else Im called to do and this isn't it.
But I don't particularly want to make a decision on a whim and find out six months to the line that I regret the decision and that it was just be self doubt blocking the spirit.
Thanks
Simon
