How Wise Women Learn Discernment (Is It God, Fear, or Emotion?) E28

from Christian Mental Health for Women | The Pert Plan™ · host Pam Litchford, LPC

Have you ever wondered:“Is this God leading me… or is this fear?”“Am I experiencing peace… or just relief?”“Should I move forward… or slow down?”In this episode, we’re talking about discernment—what it is, what it isn’t, and how wise women learn to recognize the difference between emotion, urgency, fear, wisdom, and God’s leading.We’ll explore why discernment and wisdom are connected but not the same, why relief and peace are often confused, and how paying attention to patterns, counsel, Scripture, and the Holy Spirit helps us see more clearly.Because wise women don’t simply ask what they feel.They learn to ask what is true.If this episode encourages you, share it with a friend and leave a rating or review so more women can find The Pert Plan.Want to hold The Pert Plan in your hands? "Waiting Without Falling Apart" devotional/journal Amazon link:https://a.co/d/08QkgemcChristian mental health meets grounded truth, emotional wisdom, and practical encouragement for real life.This episode is part of The Pert Plan™, a Christian mental health podcast  grounded in biblical truth and evidence-based wisdom to help you challenge lies, renew your mind, and grow courageous faith.Follow on Instagram @thepertplanhttps://www.instagram.com/thepertplan?igsh=ZGxvbXM0emtxOXpxIf you’re in South Carolina and looking for more personalized support, I do offer counseling for women.
