To have discernment is the ability to see and understand people, things, or situations clearly and intelligently. Without the ability we leave ourselves open to make some detrimental decisions. Some of those decisions could have us making decisions that affect our health. Some decisions affect whether or not we are in the job we should have for whatever period. It can even come down to whether we eat something that is going to have some serious repercussions later. (ha ha!) Sometimes we do not want to disappoint others, so going against our better judgment we will push discernment about the situation aside in favor of not disappointing. That is a bad decision. Nevertheless, those are lessons for learning when the opportunity comes around again. Therefore, I am grateful for the gift of discernment, even when I miss it! In hindsight, it has been a great teacher!
