Wow Andy, not sure where you got all that but you're not getting what I'm talking about.

I'm sorry, I must have read your post in the wrong state of mind. I read again carefully. For some reason, what I thought I picked up was a denigration of your opinions and your own heart. But if you were speaking of external distractions and voices trying to lead your heart away from your true Love, then may it be so. Heck, even if you are distrustful of listening to your heart, it's your right to feel that way, so feel free to disregard mine or any other opinions.

Sounds like you're really feeling bombarded by all the ideas around you, and are longing for a quiet mind, so you can listen for the voice of God. Is that was you're saying?

I am reminded of a poem I read some 20 years ago… It is called

Waiting God

This is a way
Strange and beautiful,
Full of wild hope
And qiuet fear
At the inevitability of it all.

For God is there
And God will watch,
Tirelessly wait
All my life,
For me, for me
To come.
And the way is there-
Though only dimly comprehended.

But God- this patient God,
Will never
Give up.

From Psalms of a Laywoman by Edwina Gateley

Your words seem to describe a struggle to follow a God who you suspect and may actually have reason to believe doesn't actually like you — and you convincing yourself that you don't need to be liked or loved. Believing so would make you powerful, if it were true.

Why is it that your heart is so dangerous and your intellect is a curse? What are you afraid of? What are you really afraid to lose control of? What if perfect love drove that fear out of you?
