Sister Linda Volk, PHJC

The journey from novitiate through final commitment was bumpy and uneven. Instead of the movie version of entering religious life with shining eyes and holy music, the Holy Spirit had me fumbling around at the side door, peering inside,  hanging around at the threshold, eventually reopening the door and finally stepping through with recognition that I belonged to this life and that I found joy and fulfillment in it.

I learned over and over that God always has a way of writing straight with crooked lines!

Can you feel called by God even if you don’t believe in God?
