the calling

a friend of mine is about to become a nun today.....contemplative nun....i was just amazed at how people can offer their lives fully to the lord....how they would give up their families.....their loved ones....their work...everything nice 'outside'....i'm not saying that those things are more valuable than our love for the lord....its just that i am so amazed about it....i mean its really difficult to 'hear' the calling the lord has for you...but its even more amazing to respond to it.....to say yes to it....kakaiba lang talaga si lord....when he calls, minsan kakagulat...

we all have a different calling...some to live single for the lord...to enter the religious...some to have a family...to have children who will in time give praise and worship to the lord....but whatever our calling is, lets hope and pray that we will hear it...and hear it soon....and respond to it....say yes to it soon....
