Nov 2018 NLMC : Discernment

“Let the renewing of your minds transform you, so that you may discern for yourselves what is the will of God—what is good and acceptable and mature.” (Rom 12:2b) In 2015 Pope Francis said, “Do I pray that the Lord gives me the desire to do his will, or do I look for compromises because I’m afraid of God’s will? Another thing: praying to know God’s will for me and my life, concerning a decision that I must take now… there are so many things. The way in which we handle things…. Praying for the desire to do God’s will and praying to know God’s will. And when I know God’s will, praying again for the third time, to follow it.  To carry out that will, which is not my own, it is His will. And all this is not easy.” The speaker will share some pastoral insights into discernment and discerning God’s will. Since discernment is an art and it is learned by doing we will spend some of the workshop practicing discernment together
