Have you ever had the feeling of being in the wrong place at the wrong time? Getting to the level where you clearly feel within you the Holy Spirit saying, “Get out of there!”?
It’s a slightly hopeless feeling, it leaves you agitated and scared.
Wrong place at the wrong time
Earlier this year, I was walking home after a day at work, and while waiting for the bus, I saw a man passing by, being carried by two others. He had a strange appearance and I felt uncomfortable in his presence.
It was when I felt inside me someone clearly saying “get out of there”, at that moment I knew it was the Holy Spirit speaking to me. At the same moment this happened, my bus arrived and I had no peace until the moment it left the station and I was heading home.
To be ready or not to be?
Later, the Lord told me that it was a much more complex situation than I had imagined, which I was not ready to handle.
In another situation, maybe He would send me to the man to pray for him, but I wasn’t ready for that, I still didn’t have enough spiritual maturity to do that, even, I believe I still don’t have it.
And can I tell you something? This is completely normal.
Of course, we have to always seek to get closer and closer to God to be more and more mature spiritually, but we have to remember that it’s not always the time, so we have to be attentive to the Lord and the voice of the Holy Spirit.
“There is an occasion for everything, and a time for every activity under heaven”
Ecclesiastes 3:1
Do not forget that. We often want to take the lead and do what we think we should, but be aware of the voice of the Holy Spirit, because it may not be the time yet, the Lord knows all things and His will is good, perfect and pleasant. .
God bless you,
Ana.
