“We can’t force discernment. But we can find ways to make ourselves open to it.”

Pastor Derrick teaches us 3 beliefs that are crucial for discernment:
- Belief in the goodness of God- if we don’t believe Gods goodness is for me, we begin to be suspicious
- Love is our primary calling - what would the love of God do in this situation? How does it fit?
- Belief that God communicates w with us through the Holy Spirit who is given to help us know the demand of love in our situation.

Key Scripture: Numbers 9:17-18
