    I know the Holy Spirit has communicated to me either through word or dreams or visions. I also hear a word from the holy spirit and some times a direct answer to prayer. What I notice is that my prayers are often answered when I least expect them.

    I’m not the most religious person out there but I’m a firm believer in signs.
    Whenever I pray or seek for a better understanding, usually something happens like God or the universe is trying to guide me where I need to be/go.

    Nothing is wrong with believing in that.

    Early in my childhood I saw one of the George Burns "Oh God" films. So for me, that was what God looked and sounded like. And sometimes I would talk to him when I was alone in my room at night, when I was scared or afraid of something, etc. I would totally have conversations. I was maybe 4 or 5 years old. Then one day, a grownup told me that you can't actually hear God, he doesn't talk to you like that, and from that moment forward the conversations stopped and I never did hear his voice, or any voice, again.

    Recently, as I worked to overcome some old injuries, and push toward my fitness goals, I started using the mantra, "With God, I'm not washed up". And now I say that in my head all the time, and I use it for other times in my life when I need to step up, confront, or overcome a challenge. I have been more successful ever since I employed this phrase, and the positive thinking that underlays it.

    Of course, it's not about being religious. It's about a personal relationship with the Lord.

    I don't know. Sometimes i have sudden thoughts and dreams about how should i move on with my life and regarding my decisions.
    Once i noticed a picture in my room falling in the ground when i thought about doing something stupid.

    Maybe this is some form of communication.

    Sounds like you have a guardian angel perhaps. Take heed of things like that.

    We have communication issues, maybe it's because I'm Catholic so I don't have the gift of glossolalia.

    On a more serious note, maybe the answers I seek are within reach, but I'm unable to see them, maybe I'm refusing to see them. Sometimes I feel like I don't have to suppress my intuition so much (perhaps it's a sign, the first one).

    Something similar once happened to me, this is curious.
