Dare to Dwell: A Podcast with the Daughters of St. Paul

S05 E14: Discernment: What’s love got to do with it?


Listen Later

In today’s episode, Sr. Orianne Pietra René and Sr. Julie Benedicta are joined by Sr. Emily Beata in a conversation about discernment, the will of God, pitfalls we can fall into, and tips for making a good discernment about big or little things.


Sr. Emily describes discernment as placing ourselves in a space where we can become aware of both internal and external realities so that when we choose, we can choose with God.


“The will of God is his greatest act of love for us.”

– Blessed James Alberione

Excerpt:

It fills me with joy to know you. I can feel the

   presence of your love.

Thank you for letting me give you myself just

   as I am

The more I thank you, the more I find I can give

   myself to you

Help me let go of the things I used to place my

   faith in. All I ask is to be yours.

Call to action:

1.    Cultivate a daily habit of an examen, asking yourself, “Where was God today, and how did I respond to him?” and inviting the Holy Spirit to help you to see the patterns in your relationship with the Lord.

2.    Throughout your day, ask, “God what are you inviting me to now?” and pray, “Come Holy Spirit,” and then act.
