A good balanced article. It is difficult to distinguish between the Spirit’s leading and our instincts, and we need balance that with:

Unless you have clear evidence to the contrary, refusing to take someone at her word—even with your “holy hunch”—is a slippery slope to spiritual abuse.

Man looks on the outward appearance, but God on the heart. But sometimes clues arise that make us question what is in the heart. It is a tricky subject, and it needs to be addressed as in this article. Good read, good sense.

Probably not as hard as some make it out to be. The Spirit’s leading almost always (or always) comes with a chapter and verse.
