    4 Ways to Use the Peace of the Holy Spirit for Discernment: Biblical Encouragement for When You Feel Stuck | 42

    What does the peace of the Holy Spirit actually feel like and how can you use it for discernment in everyday decisions? In this episode, we explore how God uses His peace to guide His people, how to recognize the difference between true peace and false peace, and why the absence of peace can sometimes be just as important when listening for God’s voice.

If you’ve ever struggled to trust in God when decisions feel unclear, or wondered whether peace is something you can actually grow in over time, this conversation will help ground your discernment in God’s Word rather than pressure or fear. We’ll look at what the Bible says about peace, how it works alongside wisdom, counsel, and prayer, and how God patiently trains us to recognize His guidance. ✨ Journal prompts to help you reflect on this episode and practice discernment are available in the newsletter: you can sign up at laurentpaperco.com/newsletter.
