All the Answers Are Inside: Trusting Your Inner Knowing

consciousness faith inner-being Aug 11, 2025

All the answers are inside. No one has your roadmap. But you do. You and God. Your instinct and intuition is your navigation system to lead you home.

You know. You are allowed to know. Permission to know what you know.

"Our instinct and our intuition is one of the ways that God speaks to us and through us. It's one of the portals in which we can actually hear God speak. It's the part of us that's divine, that's quiet, that's deep inside that speaks to us.

A prayer that I say almost every day is: God, grant me the discernment to know when I am surrendering and when I'm actually being just passive, and grant me the discernment to know when I'm co-creating with you and when I'm being controlling or acting in urgency. And the instinct, the intuition, the voice inside of me always knows.

So when I'm praying for discernment, what I do, the action that I match with that prayer is to get still and quiet and listen inside. We know our knowing is there. It's always there. It never leaves us. It's one of the most primary ways in which God speaks to us and our only job is to listen.

There is a part inside of us that is a walking prophet that has the deepest, most ancient wisdom of anything. And if we can get quiet and we can listen in, we know the answers. We know the answers to the unanswerable questions.

And the truth is, the reason why we can't find the answers outside of ourselves is because they aren't there. Because the answer for you is not the same answer for me and the answer for me is not the same answer for you.

Soul alignment work helps us see that we're each on our own individual soul's journey here to be ourselves, which means that the map for me is not the same map for you, and the map for you is not the same map for me.

I truly believe that a real, true leader leads people back to their own knowing and their own inner wisdom and their own intuition, because it's good to learn from others. But truthfully, truthfully, the truthiest truth is that we have all the wisdom that we need inside of us."
