In today’s episode, we’re talking about discernment, presence, and peace and what it really means to be at peace in your spirit even when your mind, body, and circumstances haven’t caught up yet.

Sometimes when we’re in a season that requires discernment, we may feel spiritually anchored, yet our nervous system is activated, our thoughts are racing, and our emotions are trying to make decisions for us just to get relief from discomfort.

In this episode, we explore how:
• Discernment doesn’t begin with answers, it begins with presence
• Spiritual peace doesn’t always mean emotional or physical calm
• A regulated nervous system creates space for discernment
• God’s peace meets us inside uncomfortable situations

We reflect on key Scriptures about discernment, including:

Psalm 46:10
Hebrews 5:14
Philippians 1:9–10
1 Kings 3
1 John 4:1

This episode is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and let God guide your next step through peace-led clarity.

If this conversation stirred something in you, I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
