Allow yourself to be led by God

“Be who God meant you to be and you will set the world on fire.”

St. Catherine of Siena speaks of the power for good that is released when we discover our vocation, the God-given call for our lives.

Each of us have a unique contribution to make. Vocation is about discovering deep within ourselves who we are called to be. When we discover what gives us joy, what we are passionate about, we begin to discover where we are called to place our energies, our talents, and ultimately our lives. Vocation is much more than a choice of what we might do or how we might choose to live. It is a response to the call of God within us which effects every aspect of our lives.

The apostles encountered Christ and were moved to respond generously to his invitation in their ordinary lives. The Gospel reveals ordinary people responding in an extraordinary way when they are called by Jesus. Through our baptism we are each called to follow Christ. May we have the courage and generosity to respond wholeheartedly to his invitation in our lives, willing to follow wherever his call leads us.
