Intuition and Divine Whispers

LeNora Millen

Description

Using biblical references throughout, this inspirational guide and personal narrative explores intuitive guidance, God’s divine spirit, and miracles materializing in our lives.

How often have you experienced a powerful urge to do something and fought against it, only later to discover that your intuition was correct? How do we learn to listen to the God within and block the chatter of outside noise? These divine whispers not only inform and guide us but also serve as reminders that the creator is ever present in our lives, not just during difficult times.

Intuition and Divine Whispers focuses on author LeNora Millen’s spiritual journey and personal relationship with God. Millen calls on us to listen to the inner voice of God, which some call intuition or divine guidance. She doesn’t seek to condemn or convert those who have not experienced miracles, the paranormal, or the gift of insight. Instead, she shares the path she traveled with a plethora of twists and turns, revealing aspects of her life previously only known to family and close friends. Most importantly, she explores what it means to pray and move out of your own way to allow your creator to work through you and for you.

Using biblical references throughout the book, this inspirational and personal narrative explores intuitive guidance, God’s divine spirit, and miracles materializing in our lives.

PREFACE
She believed that invisible wings were tucked away gently within her shoulder blades. One day while in prayer , she asked her creator to take her on a spiritual journey. Speaking through her spirit, God impressed upon her heart a series of life’s fleeting moments when birth from her mother’s womb into the cradle of mother earth. Within the stillness of the moment, she remembered. Images moved faster than light, and memories of times past tapped away at her spirit, giving life to every cell within her DNA. Déjà vu , as she understood it seemed more meaningful, especially when connecting the dots to past and present experiences, leaving her standing in awe while whispering to herself— “I’ve done this before.” In that contemplative moment of prayer, she realized many of the signs, miracles , and blessings throughout her life were nudges from her creator. In contrast, those familiar life whispers were roadmaps to the creator’s promise of hope and the evidence of things not seen, which was an unbreakable faith that sustained her. Yearning to understand why she felt innately and intimately connected to certain experiences, she realized the gift of life with all its uncertainties was far more precious than fleeting memories.
Whether it was a scent, a phrase, someone’s tone, a gesture, or visiting a destination not yet traveled, sensations awakened with familiarity and a keen sense that she’d walked certain paths before. Empowered with an insight of being formed by her creator, discovering herself through images revealed during her journey from the darkness of a watery womb before being thrust into the light imparted by God—she reflected while thanking her creator for breathing life into her entire being. Self-reflection , defined as careful thought about one’s own beliefs and values , specifically when reflecting upon a major life-altering experience, may seem exceedingly onerous for some people. Engaging in such an arduous journey to later share experiences and unfathomable phenomena with others often set the stage for judgments and criticisms that cause some people to refrain from speaking their truth. What’s tangible is only black and white for some people, with no gray areas that refute beliefs on what is deemed plausible or factual. Viewing life in only black and white speaks to a skewed perspective whereby someone’s strong opinion is either right or wrong or good and bad.
Defense mechanisms and thinking in extremes place this type of individual within a restrictive dichotomy that feeds into the “all or nothing” bubble of an “ought to be” world. Sticking to their convictions, the dichotomous thinker quickly says— “If it hasn’t happened to me, it’s not possible.” The takeaway from having dealt with narrow-minded judgments is—”don’t expect anyone to understand your journey, especially when they have not walked your path.” Discovering our true purpose provides us with the master key to unlocking the mind’s door we refuse to enter because certain memories are far too painful. Those memories buried deep within the attic of our psyche are often triggered by the words and actions of others. Refusing to acknowledge painful memories does not change the past, nor does it change who we are. The avoidance thus becomes a way to exist rather than evolve from past hurts. Though the past is not our final destination, it shapes who we are and how we navigate life. Integrating those aspects of our lives helps us to become more authentic not only with ourselves but with others as well. Life presents most people with gifts or talents to explore. It’s left up to each of us on the planet to discover God-given talents by unearthing and embracing our gifts rather than burying them deep within the walls and crevices of shame, denial, and self-doubt. Understanding how most experiences shape thoughts or trigger emotions is significant to certain life path decisions taken during the various life stages. Life’s most important aspect is learning and hopefully sharing something of value that could perhaps inspire and help others posit ively. Experience shapes our perception and is undoubtedly our best teacher but only when we’re willing to examine and study ourselves objectively. Some life lessons and prior experiences may be too painful or embarrassing to share with others. Moving past the shame by taking back one’s power begins with owning the whole of who we are, such as the poor choices made, especially when called to task about anything that brings into question authenticity or integrity.
Peeling back layers of the onion to allow vulnerabilities to emerge—when presented with extremely challenging circumstances—some of the most difficult life events have caused me to occasionally question my faith and ability to relinquish fear and doubt. Centering thoughts on ways to move past doubt is similar to an internal flame of hope, helping those seeking God’s inward light to find their way out of darkness and despair. Whispering into the spirit, “You’ve got this, don’t give up,” the courage to keep going is reminiscent of unquestionable faith in one’s divine creator. Optimism has its place, especially when evaluating beliefs, actions, and apprehensions. It’s all in how a person views their circumstance. Arriving unannounced at our doorstep like an uninvited guest—when unprepared for life uncertainties and the whirlwinds of change—life happens. What a person does next determines their outcome. Reflecting upon my life, as I often do, faith in my creator is how I survived some of my darkest moments. On occasion, the doubter or inner critic would reveal itself in the most unlikely way with attempts to sway me into thinking that I was not worthy of my creator’s favor. I’d question my reasoning on whether faith and doubt could coexist.
What could I learn about myself to dispel the notion of believing that doubt was the opposite of faith? Rather than viewing doubt as means of acknowledging feelings of uncertainty when faced with the mess in our lives that create concern and sleeplessness, I should have focused more on faith. In my spiritual walk, I discovered that God has more tolerance for doubters than those who would harshly judge others for being honest about their feelings. Doubt merely creates a space for faith to enter our hearts, whereby the opposite of doubt is certitude or certainty. Remaining silent by not expressing myself because of someone’s opinion or their measuring stick on faith is not how I choose to exist. Those who have read the holy writings with an understanding of the scripture know that the bible has many examples of doubters who had faith in God but professed fear and uncertainty when faced with difficulties. Elevating bible characters considered unfit at the time are examples of how God’s divine plan is not man’s plan and surely not based on man’s limited perceptions or judgments. Only God can fully examine our hearts and measure our faith. It is the heart of man that touches God. And yet, I’m never shocked when observing people belittle or attempt to dehumanize someone because opinions differ. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic , I witnessed individuals on major television networks and social media platforms mock people who wore masks . Rather than respect a person’s choice to protect themselves and others, they ridiculed those wearing masks calling them sinners or brainwashed cowards. Debating about anyone who lacked faith because they wore masks, from my perspective, was wasted energy. I have faith in God but will not hasten death by making unwise decisions. The deadly COVID-19 virus ’s mission was to infiltrate the body, infect it, and cause death. My mission is to protect my temple,
