You have a decision to make. Do you take a certain action or not? By all means, do your research. Find out what is involved. But as for trusting others’ opinions, these will all be subjective, based on their experiences. Who knows what is in your highest good and the highest good of all? Those with the highest perspective, which requires seeking guidance from above the realm where the decision will take place. Take your question into meditation and once you relax body and mind completely, ask very specifically about your issue. You need not hear or see a presence to receive a clear answer in the form of knowing.
You are so very loved.
Agree
That part that says: “You need not hear or see a presence to receive a clear answer in the form of knowing.”, sometimes gives us a shock as to “how come” we can “KNOW” and still act and question as if we know it not.
Therein lay the will. There reclines the ego. Within that lay the “story” you accepted, for yourself, so that you can advance the soul, NOT the ego.
You do not have to advance – but you may.
Should you choose to refrain from advancing, you will simply rediscover that you had intended to advance but missed your cue to enter “the turn” by which you would have advanced. Do not worry though. An opportunity will arise again regardless of other conditions, though you just don’t know when it would arrive.
However, you can ask that more-knowledgable-beings help you to create and (this time), SEE AND ACT ON the opportunity to advance, sooner rather than later.
You dont have to, but you may.
That is Who God is upon your free-will.
