La La La La, la, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, great coquel here, and I'm glad you joined me today.

We're off schedule for this show, which means we're going right to open my calls and love to have them.

In fact, this particular list of open my calls says, 2023 open my calls.

Is that not act?

That's just an old thing because it hasn't been that long. Oh, that's when we started. She hasn't changed the title. Okay, but what we do is we try to mostly take the oldest calls first, first in, first out kind of thing. And sometimes it takes a while. Now, if you want to participate in and open my calls, not hard. You don't have to call into the show when the show is live and talk to Amy, then talk to me, after you've waited for other callers. A lot of people do that. We're glad for that. It makes it more fun to have an interaction with a caller, but many people can't do that.

And so we made provision for them with open mic calls, and they can just go to our homepage,

STR.org, and under podcast, there's a live podcast section, and you'll see the prompts that will allow you to record your question

right there on the computer, and then it'll go in the queue, and eventually it'll come up to me.

Most of the time, most of the questions that are asked, I will answer.

Once in a while, I just don't have an answer or nothing

that I think is going to be a contribution for the caller or for the rest. So we might pass that

by. But generally, we get to them. It just takes a while to do so. So I wonder if we would have a

timestamp on each of these these calls so I know how long

ago they called them in. But in any event, here we go. So let's hear from Silas first. He has a

question about God speaking to us.

Hey, Greg and Amy.

My name is Silas, and I'm from Meena, Arkansas.

And my question is about God speaking to you and moving through you and certain your heart.

I had recently read your Does God Whisper three-part series and really enjoyed it.

But I was wondering, how can we tell that God is speaking to us and it's not our own thoughts?

One of our pastors at our church said it once like this.

If something you're thinking is not normally like you, then is probably god and a few examples he gave was um if you're walking on the street and think to give someone five bucks or
