Over and over I am nudged by the Holy Spirit towards certain activities to be His hands and feet in this world. I feel the nudge and sometimes I hear the whisper but I am a girl that likes clarity. Anyone else like me? I want to know the “plan” before I start moving toward what He is asking. When I don’t know His “plan” or have one of my own, fear sets in. Sometimes it’s fear of looking stupid. Other times, it’s fear of failure or not being able to clearly articulate the hows and whys of what He is asking of me.
