So for a bit of backstory, for past few months I would say I've not really felt God's presence too much and kind of felt quite disconnected, but literally in the span of 90 minutes, I had an experience that seems impossible that it's a coincidence. So I was having lunch before I went to the gym and it was raining like crazy then stopped and then as just before I went outside to the car to drive to the gym, the rain got super light rain. And then once I was in the car it started raining really badly. Then it stopped when I got out of the car in the gym car park and then when I walked back to the car from the gym pretty much as soon as I closed the door it started hail stoning again and then just before I got back home it stopped. Am I being crazy or was this possibly a sign from God and if so how should I interpret it?

This is something that I've struggled with for a while. Any advice would be very much appreciated.

So when I was a non believer in secondary school (high school) and through sixth form (college) I had really low self esteem, as I was really self conscious and always concerned about what people would think about me, so I'd try and make as many friends as I could with the "popular" kids in school, but I'd create fake personalities around each person/group to try and fit in so that they'd like me and so that I'd feel as if I had some self worth. And tbh to this day I still people please a bit and do things and say things I don't want to to do and say just so I don't lose my friends even though they're pretty secular and I know I shouldn't be hanging out with them, but I've been friends/known most of them for close to half my life. Another thing that I've been doing recently as a coping mechanism or to reverse the years of feeling like I have a lack of self worth is hyper inflating my own ego to the point where I just constantly look down on people and judge them and think that I'm better than them, even though I'm not. And I really don't want to have these feelings and I know in the Bible it mentions countless times how being prideful and arrogant is wrong, but I just have so many intrusive judgmental and prideful thoughts and I do try and rebuke them, but I just have so many that it gets overwhelming. Any advice would be very appreciated.

What is something that's been going super well for you all? And also, what's been something that you've been struggling with? Let us encourage one another 🫂 I'll go first, something that's been going well for me is that I've been helping out a lot with family and we all feel closer than ever. Something I'm struggling with is staying consistent with my business and being afraid of failing. But I know deep down that taking action alleviates that fear. Who can relate? 😅 Okay, your turn! 😄

I'd love you guys to share what God is saying to you. God is telling me that during a state of rest is when we are able to make the best decisions. When you're under stress, decisions become more difficult and it prohibits a state of flow. We want to flow like a river. When a river flows, there is no stagnation. The water is clean because it's MOVING. This means cut distractions and just focus. We need to move, take action, and keep moving. What is God saying to you? Comment below!
