Bump

So I have come to a conclusion. Mind you it is not some world changing one. Just something small that I think is pretty nifty. Here goes.
I think nudges are pretty cool. Let me see if I can define what a nudge is. A small push in the right direction from an unexpected source. Or sometimes even from the big man himself. Now I have been nudged many times in the past and let me tell you it always hacked me off. I always had some thought of the other person having no business in telling me what they thought I should do in any way, shape or form. But now I can see that's what makes nudges so great. And so effective. They always seem to come from out of nowhere and from the direction you least expect. And THAT is what makes them so effective. They jolt you out of your rut and makes you aware on a whole new level of what you're doing or not doing. it seems to me that God uses these as a not so subtle way of saying, "hey buddy. no deal. try something else 'cause this line of thinking ain't getting it done." (for some reason God became a hillbilly there in my head. Not sure what that was all about) Nudges wouldn't be as effective if they cam from the usual sources. Your family, friends and such. It takes that outside view that can strip away the bias and tell it like it is.
I am loving that I finally see the usefullness of such things. God is EVERYWHERE all the time. He's always looking out for you and trying to show you what you're doing wrong. Just a thought I had and thought I would share. So be on the lookout for those nudges. They're pretty cool.
