I. GOD'S WILL IS NOT A FEELING
I want you to see that God's will is not a feeling. Some people think that if they can get alone, get in to the Yoga position, blank out everything else in their mind, then they will get some kind of impression. Some kind of feeling will come to them. There will be a tingle in their spin, there will be a "fuzzy" feeling all over and they will know this is the will of God because it just feels ...
