Please pray for me and my future vocational path, that I would be able to discern the will of God in my life’s circumstances and know when to respond to His call.

I feel called to the consecrated religious life and am now frequently going to a Franciscan Friary as an aspirant. I feel called to live a life entirely devoted to God. Everything was ok for a while, and even my mother at first approved, but now she has expressed her desire for me to get a job after College to support her until she is old.

She told me that even if I became a friar around 30 or later in life it still wouldn’t be too late. I understand that this is sound advice, and that I have a responsibility to support my mother, but I don’t know how to reconcile this with my desire for a vocation and enter after College. She started a huge conversation at the dinner table, and I’m feeling slightly embarrassed right now about it. Please pray that God’s will would be done in my life, and that I would be able to know when to enter if it be His will.

Thanks and God bless 🙂

OUR Father…
Hail Mary…
Gloy be to the Father…
 
Praying for you to be able to hear God’s plan for you and honor your Mother at the same time.
 
Mother Mary, please make your intentions in this matter come true.

Hail Mary…

Amen.
 
Remembering you and your mother in my daily prayers. God bless!
 
Pater noster, qui es in cælis, sanctificetur nomen tuum; adveniat regnum tuum; fiat voluntas tua, sicut in caelo et in terra. Panem nostrum cotidianum da nobis hodie, et dimitte nobis debita nostra, sicut et nos dimittimus debitoribus nostris; et ne nos inducas in tentationem Sed libera nos a malo. Amen
 
I pray that God makes his will clear to you and follow it! :crossrc:

Our Father, Who art in heaven,
Hallowed be Thy Name.
Thy Kingdom come.
Thy Will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
