Are You Called? Steps for Discernment
"I Have Called You Each By Name."
Speak with your Pastor or find a spiritual director, someone you can be open with,
who can help you to develop your relationship with God and to know yourself better.
Be Quiet in order to hear the Lord's voice calling.
Take time to pray and meditate in silence about your vocation,
especially in front of the Blessed Sacrament.
Ask a priest, brother or sister how they discerned their calling.
Read up on religious and priestly life, especially people like St. Marguerite D’Yourville,
Look at a good periodical on vocations or do an internet search, write to the
communities that interest you and visit the ones you feel called to.
Build a relationship with the community where you have a sense of coming home.
Get involved in its summer or monthly programs.
Receive Holy Communion as often as possible.
Wait for the Lord. Discerning your vocation is a process.
God's timing is always perfect - but seldom seems soon enough!
