I think it would be a great idea to have a Spiritural Director on here live to answer questions.

That’s an excellent suggestion, Dee. Are you thinking something like how we had the Sisters of Charity on for a specific time during the day so that we could interact “live”?

BTW, perhaps it would be interesting to get a spiritual director on here one day for a discussion.

Although I know that God does guide us, at times in our lives, it does seem like we are stuck figuring things out for ourselves. Is it that our lives are too cluttered to hear God’s voice? May we be resisting God’s message? Why do you all think God does not make his will or desires more obvious? (Lately, I have had trouble discerning – I feel like my life is a maze.) Or, in the final analysis, does God not always actually have a particular preference or mission for all of our lives? Perhaps some folks are just to be loving – no special mission is requested. dee

god has called me to reach people via the written word and to lead and design retreats for women and young adults. i have been temporarily called to do other things–to take care of a dying friend the last three years of her life, to protest injustices i encounter in my daily life–but i always come back to my ordained purpose. how do i know i am doing what god wants? i experience joy in what i do.
