To Know One's Vocation

Dear Lord Jesus, up until now, you have been quietly guiding me to become your disciple. The time of my preparation is coming to a close. I feel you asking me, just as you once asked Peter, "Will you also choose to leave?" It grieved you to see friends turn away, yet Peter remained steadfast. He declared, "Lord, to whom shall we turn? You possess the words of everlasting life." I stand alongside Peter in this moment. Through prayer and wise counsel, reveal to me, Lord, where you desire me to serve in your vineyard. Grant me the strength to remain faithful to your calling. Mary, Mother and inspirer, assist me in responding with generous love to the invitation of your Son.Amen.
