Here's a list of questions to help worshippers decide whether they have a message that needs to be shared with the rest of the meeting.
• Have I come to worship free of any determination to speak or not to speak?
• Have I become centered in the silence?
• Do I experience my message as coming from a deep spiritual center or source?
• Is my message intended for everyone and not just for me or the last speaker?
• Is it unlikely that my message will be perceived as a lecture or announcement?
• Do my words point the way to something higher than myself, rather than pointing
primarily back to me? Will they turn the listeners inward to the Light or Spirit
within them?
• Do I feel that I must speak?
If the answer to each of these questions is “yes,” then Spirit may be
calling you to speak.
