TO DISCOVER ONE’S VOCATION
TO DISCOVER ONE’S VOCATION
O Great Saint Joseph, you were
completely obedient to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Obtain for me the grace
to know the state of life that God in His providence has chosen for me. Since
my happiness on earth, and perhaps even my final happiness in heaven, depends
on this choice, let me not be deceived in making it.
Obtain for me the light to know God’s Will, to
carry it out faithfully, and to choose the vocation which will lead me to a
happy eternity. Amen
