Toss a coin
One thing I have to tell you. Glen Knecht spoke of how to talk to people who are in a double bind. That is, a choice where both options seem equally bad (or I suppose equally good). One particularly dear soul said "Oh yes, damned if you do and damned if you don't..."
Anyway, he suggested tossing a coin. You say "Heads you do the one thing, tails you do the other", then you toss the coin and carefully watch their reaction because their reaction will reveal their intuition about the situation.
If their reaction is "Oh great. That's such a relief.", good. If it is "Oh no! Not that!" then you know where they stand.
He says that your intuition is the blend of your education, family training, character, Bible knowledge, wisdom and the work of the Spirit in you. We find it hard to express what our intuition is about a situation, but tossing a coin helps.
I'd love to be in one of his counselling sessions when he suggests doing this. I bet people's faces can be a real picture.
