Here is my vocational discernment story. I learnt discernment, not through reading or lectures, but through personal struggle and the wisdom and love of some good people God placed on my path. They didn’t discuss discernment; they helped me to discern. Friends who read this account tell me it will help others. So, here it is. I will try to be as honest as possible, and put things simply, as they happened. I hope it helps some of you at least.
Doubts and Troubling Experiences
Right from my high school days with the Salesians, I had the conviction that, to be happy, we must do God’s will. My problem was: How do I find out what God wills for me?
This was always a struggle for me. I did not (and still do not) understand how some people find it very easy to “find and follow their vocation.”
