I am grateful that you have given us such a personal and wise podcast, Peter. It reaffirms my sense of you that there are great depths and braveries inherent to you. It reaffirms my intuitive sense that there is wonderful magnificence in you. I think God will use you wisely.

For highly analytical people such as yourself, one challenge is trying to figure out what God is asking of you. Your analytical mind tries to figure it out rationally. That doesn’t work. Prayer does, because you calm your mind enough to hear the small, still voice within you that is your intuition, the guidance from God. The good news is that, if you are humble before God and truly want to be lead, it becomes easier to hear your intuition as you get older and wiser.

Your intellectual mind may tell you that, because of your bravery, sense of duty, and other attributes - including your determination to take a leap of faith - you should be ‘on the battlefield’ of a possible coming conflict. But you also have great skill in writing and communicating wise guidance to people, which will be desperately needed in an ‘aftermath’. So keep listening to your intuition, Peter. The leaps of faith that you may be lead to take may be different from what your analytical mind is saying.

I know that I have been lead by God to interact with you. I literally have prayed that God gives me the right words to say to you, to write what you need to hear at this time. My sense is that you need to open yourself up to people again, after withdrawing from most personal interaction for an extended time. Listen, and God will speak to you.
