What Is A Vocation?

What is a Vocation?

God creates every person for a specific vocation which will provide them with the greatest happiness in life and a path to reach heaven.  Their gifts and abilities are to be developed for use in this vocation.
“Love is the fundamental and innate vocation of every human being.” (CCC)  To discern your vocation, an individual must discern how has God called them to love.  Most commonly, men and women live out their vocation to love in the sacrament of marriage within family life.  Others are created to love in a special way in the vocation of priesthood, religious life or single life.

What’s My Vocation?  Or Everyone Has 3 Vocations:

“What should I do with my life?” It’s a question on many hearts, maybe even our own. In this video, Father Mike Schmitz gives some direction that can lead to an answer for ourselves or someone we know. He shares how a vocation is more than just figuring out whether we’re called to married life or religious life, and it’s about more than just finding out what we like to do. As he breaks down three different types of vocation we all have, he draws a practical path we can follow to pursue holiness.
