Once someone asked me how long it had been since I had received some kind of revelation. How would you respond to that question? If we review the blog of yesterday where we felt pressured to make sure that our dream was according to the will of Father, then we should decide if we have felt His confirmation.
As I said once before, if we have not received that assurance that we are pursuing what Father desires, we will find many obstacles that may be insurmountable. But if we have received that confirmation, then no matter the obstacles, the challenges, we should continue to pursue working toward their realization.
Once I mentioned that when I sit to write in this blog, that sweet Spirit touches my mind and whispers to me what I should write about. That is inspiration. Often when I am talking with someone and something whispers within my mind, that is inspiration. When I am reading the Book of Mormon and something feels good and right, that is inspiration. When something comes into my mind that was far from my mind and I feel sweet and comfortable, that is inspiration. When I am asking Father for an answer and something I see or experience makes me feel a certain way, that is inspiration.
We have all had inspiration and communication from our Father. It is sad to relate that often we do not recognize His voice and the feelings we have are overlooked and forgotten. When He calls and finds our line busy, I would assume He often does not call back because we seem to be too busy for His call.
Inspiration is a "gift" from our Father. But just as any talent or other gift, we have to develop it, nurture it, and exercise it so we will never be busy when He calls us.
