Wow! God has been teaching me SO much lately! It is so amazing how God can teach you so much in times of darkness, or tough times. Not only is discernment about asking God what you can do for Him, but its also about obeying him when He does tell you what to do for Him. You can never be certain about where you are going in life. The only thing certain about life is its uncertainty, as many philosophers say. You only know what God wants you to do when He tells you to do it…on His timing. He will tell you when and if he wants you to be married, or to be in the religious life, or a single person. But a vocation isn’t just about married life, religious life, and single life. A vocation is anything you do in life. Currently, my vocation is to go to school, pursue a degree in Special Ed: Deaf and Hard of Hearing and serve Him. ALL of us have a vocation to purely serve our Lord and live in Love. The way we live out that vocation varies. So, I’m not going to say that I WILL be a nun, or I WILL be married. Only time will tell. It is for God to know and me to find out. I can only hope that everyone understands this. So many assume that I am going to be a nun as soon as I mention that I am in discernment. Discernment is a life long process and, like I said, NOTHING is for certain.
Amen!
