Discernment: A Gift and a Practice

Discernment is both a gift and a practice. While some people are naturally inclined toward discernment, everyone has the capacity to develop it. Discernment involves paying attention to the presence of God and determining where the spirit of God is moving. It is not about finding a fully right or wrong choice, but about recognizing the nuances and gradients between them. Discernment requires releasing binary thinking, preferred timelines, beloved individuality, certainty, and the expectation of positive results.
