Hi everyone!
I have been lurking in this fourm quite a bit and thought that I would go ahead and jump in and hopefully get some insight into a few things I was wondering about. I was reading the thread about "seeing spirits leaving someone" and a few members talked about their spiritual gifts. I didnt want to take over that thread but I wanted to discuss this further.
I have been told by someone that I had the gift of discernment. The person that told me this was someone that I felt very compelled by God to talk to about some things that had been happening in my life. I was basically at a breaking point where I felt that I could trust no one and everyone was against me. Im a shy person so I usually dont talk to people I do not know well but this person was a new hairdresser that I had seen a few times before and she hadd alwasy talked about the lord around me.
I told her about what was going on in my life and she counciled me said that she would for me.
We develped a good relationship and she continued to keep me in her prayers and would call and check up on me. Later on (a few months) she said that she had a dream about me in which there were a lot of different people coming to me from everywhere telling me things and in the dream I was very conflicted and I was going around in circles trying to listen to everyone. She said that in the dream she came up to me and whispered in my ear. "ReeceNicole you have the gift of discernment you know the truth"
That was the first time that I had heard about spiritual gifts and it kind of scared me and awed me because that was exactly what was happening in my life at the time and always seemed to happen in the past. Its like my whole life I have always found myself having difficulty with friends. The best way to describe it, would be that it is often easy for me to "figure people out" I get very strong feelings about others that causes me to want to draw close to them or steer clear. Sometimes its seems like the people who I feel the most negative feelings for are drawn to me and mines
erplexed Honestly this has caused me a lot of conflict because I have often let others convince me that I was wrong or that I was being judgemental whenever I just felt that someone is "not right" about someone. Sometimes I have even doubted my own gift and this has caused me a lot of pain when I trusted people who I KNEW I shouldnt have 
.
What I am currently working on is trusting my gift. Praying for those who I know are "not right" and not just avoiding them. I know that God made me the way I am for a reason and maybe I have had so many issues because I havent quite figured out what to do with my gift yet.
So basically to make a long story short.
I wanted to know about yall. Do you know what your spiritual gifts are? If so how did you discover it? Have you had any problems or issues because of your gift? and how are you using it?

)but the key to trusting your gift is to first trust God. Develop your relationship with Him and ask Him to lead you in everything that you do.
