Discernment

discern - to perceive by the sight or some other sense by intellect; see, recognize, or apprehend

Proverbs 20:11 "Even children are known by the way they act, whether their conduct is pure, and whether it is right." (NLT)

"We may think we trust God, but our efforts to anxiously control the details of our lives and the lives of those around us show us that we really don't.  We may feel the emotion of love for our spouse, but our daily outbursts of anger and irritation reveal something else.  We may say we aren't greedy for  money or possessions, but our credit card debt shows otherwise.  Actions speak louder than words - or feelings - and they reveal what we really believe." - Purity by Lydia Brownback

What do your actions tell you about your heart?
