Darcy began her Navigate journey not wanting the Mercy gift. Anything else but that one. As she leaned more and more into the Mercy descriptions, and saw the writing on the wall, she came to realize she does in fact have the Mercy gift. Since then, she's been a wonderful Navigate coach, mentor, friend and compassion-giver to countless Navigate students. 

In this episode Darcy shares how she discovered her gift through the Navigate class about 4 years ago, realizing that her sensitivity and tendency to cry were actually divine qualities. She discusses how she learned to distinguish between her own emotions and those of others, and the importance of releasing others' burdens to Jesus rather than trying to solve their problems. Darcy emphasizes that the primary ministry of the mercy gift is simply being present and listening, rather than providing answers. She advises others to embrace their gift without feeling flawed, and to recognize that people are drawn to them for healing and connection. The conversation explores how Darcy's gift manifests in her ability to sense when someone needs comfort, and how she has learned to balance her compassion with healthy boundaries.
