I've ruminated over this problem for years. I've had intense experiences of the supernatural that have gone on for weeks. It's powerful, but it's also taxing. I value those experiences and the miracles I've seen. I just can't reconcile the phenomena with logical thinking. It's also hard to live under those conditions. Imagine receiving hours of instructions from a Higher Power (while at work). I remember being instructed that I had to obey the law, to the letter; including speeding limits, even as police cars would suddenly show up and drive along side me. In another experience, I was told that a telepathic communication can be intercepted by evil forces; it was my responsibility to disregard a communication that might be considered dangerous. The example that was taught to me was: what if a telepathic communication tells you to demonstrate your faith in God by closing your eyes while driving down the highway? When this point was drilled into me sufficiently, the Powers that be tested me. While I was driving down the street, a man who was standing on the curb suddenly stepped off the curb. If I had been driving with my eyes closed, I would have hit this pedestrian. I could see that the man had obviously made a mistake in stepping off the curb. I had to slam on my breaks. His buddy pulled him back onto the curb. It looked to me as if the man had received a telepathic command to step off the curb. God had to trust that I had understood what was being taught.
My point is that you have to use good judgement and discernment to tell the difference between a delusion and a communication from a Higher Power. If a Higher power is telling you something that is helpful, healing and wise, while at the same time, an evil person is trying to convince you that life is meaningless, then maybe you should listen to the wise communication and ignore the evil communication.
