I am sometimes 'intuitive'. It is usually based on physical evidence of some sort and I am sometimes wrong in my intuitions, but for the most part my intuitions tend to be accurate. I have made some spectacular errors. I once completely misinterpreted someone's body language and manner of speech and ended up apologizing. I did it in email. Even though I knew I was wrong, I did not want to talk to him, so I sent an email apology. I do not know if he ever received it or forgave me because he never responded. It's entirely possible he did not really want to talk to me either, which is fine and it kind of makes me laugh now. Not sure why.
The most baffling of my intuitions though are the ones for which I have no physical evidence. For example, once during prayer and while praying for the health of my parents, I received an insight, almost a voice in my head, that it would become my job to take care of my Dad. This was 5 years before my Mom died. On another occasion, I was drifting between sleep and wakefulness and this intuition came more as a thought that I should already know. It was very sobering as the full brunt of it hit my frontal lobe. Suddenly I knew that in only a very short time after my Dad passes, I will die. As before, there was no indication of when those events would come to pass, but you can bet that I am doing my best to keep Dad healthy and motating! The process is getting more and more difficult though as time goes on. This is the way of all life.
If events do not unfold this way, I am, of course, good with that. But if they do, be sure to tell everyone I predicted it. I suppose I could check out first. This would create some problems for Dad I think. If the Lord does it that way, I hope he will have willing people on hand to take charge of the situation. What am I saying? I have control freaks on both sides of the family that would be more than willing to step in. What am I worried about? Heaven awaits either way for both of us. Good times are ahead.
