How to Know What God Wants:
A guide to the 14 Rules of St. Ignatius—so you can stop overthinking every decision and start feeling at peace about your next step.
You want to serve your people well.
You hold yourself to a high standard—at work, at home, in your faith.
But with so much pulling at your mind and heart, you start to wonder:
- “Is this restlessness God stirring something… or just me being overwhelmed?”
- “What if I misread His will?”
- “Why can’t I get clear in prayer the way I used to?”
Discernment isn’t just about big decisions.
It’s about those daily undercurrents—the thoughts, emotions, and inner spirals that either pull you toward God… or away from Him.
This quick guide will help you remember what to look for beneath the surface so that you can respond with peace and not from a place of unrest.
Discernment doesn’t have to be confusing.
Let this guide anchor you back into God’s presence—right where you are.
