Vocations

GOD IS CALLING...
Are you listening?

Every day, God speaks to us, as Jeremiah found out, in the whispering of the wind. Are you listening to that calling or following the path you have laid out for yourself? Many of us feel that a higher calling just 'isn't for me.' The truth of the matter remains- God is calling all of us to some greater good in our lives!

As John Paul II said one time,

"The fostering of vocations cannot be considered a marginal activity,
but must be incorporated fully into the life and activity of the community."

Many of us feel that we cannot be worthy or 'good enough' to be a priest, deacon, brother, sister or anything like that. Did you know that there are more vocations? you could be a single person (happily)! Here's the clincher-

A V O C A T I O N

The definition of a vocation is as simple as the word's Latin roots: VOCARE- means 'to call.' God is calling each and every one of us to a greater cause in our lives! Whether you are called to serve him as a priest, a deacon, brother or sister, single or even married- give everything inside that vocation to God because he is calling you to it.

GOD STILL CALLS IN TODAY'S SOCIETY.
PEOPLE JUST AREN'T LISTENING AS INTENTLY AS THEY USED TO!
