Have you ever walked or driven through fog? The only way to navigate it is to move toward the spot that's right in front of you. You have that little voice in your head that says, "This is probably the best way to go." That's discernment — the ability to make good judgments.

James mentions that we gain wisdom when we notice the direction that God points us in. God is one of the greatest sources of discernment and wisdom, and we can trust the wisdom being offered is always for our good. God knows the direction our lives should be headed in, making it easier for us to see the clearest path when things get foggy. If we take a moment to consider the path we're on and the direction God is asking us to go . . . we may get pointed in a better direction.

Think about a time when you made a good judgment call. Was that God giving you discernment?
