Am I Crazy?


In year 7, I lost all my friends and was extremely lonely, I used to cry myself to sleep some nights, during this time I started talking to Jesus in my head and I felt he talked back and helped me through it. Maybe I'm insane though, I have not heard or seen him since, I never saw him at all. What do you think?

You are not crazy. The voice may be God's and it may not be God's. Sometimes I have solved problems by "discussing" them in my head. One time I felt that needed an answer from God by a specific date. It was a somewhat low-profile issue that I sought divine guidance about. The day came and I was driving home from work when the answer suddenly “popped” into my head. It caught me by surprise because at the time, I wasn’t even thinking about it at all. It was a four-word response that was so subtle and quiet that I thought to myself, “why did I just now think of that?”. Then I suddenly realized that I had just received the answer I asked for. Now things like that rarely happen to me but who knows? Maybe God speaks to us all the time without us realizing it! Perhaps it even happens to people who don't really believe in God.

If it helps you work things out in your head (without any harm) then use it. Even Paul (Saul of Tarsus) wrote that he was not always sure if it was his thoughts or those of the Holy Spirit he was articulating at times.

Ask him (Jesus) right now. If he answers then yes you are.
