Discernment
is the activity of determining the value and quality of a certain
subject or event, particularly the activity of going past the mere
perception of something and making detailed judgments about that thing.
As a
virtue, a discerning individual is considered to possess
wisdom, and be of good
judgement; especially so with regard to subject matter often overlooked by others.
Christianity
In
Christianity, the word may have several meanings. It can be used to describe the process of determining
God's
desire in a situation or for one's life. In large part, it describes the interior search for an answer to the question of one's
vocation, namely, determining whether or not God is calling one to the
married life,
single life,
consecrated life,
ordained ministry or any other calling.
