What is my calling? - My calling is to put my wants and desires aside and do what God has told me to do. But what is it? - I have been called to do what I wouldn't do on my own, things for the Kingdom of Heaven, and those other things that are placed in our hearts when we lay down our lives to Christ.
I never wanted to get married, now I am; I didn't think of having children, now my heart is pulsing to do so; I can't stop thinking of adopting a child, the one that people wanted the least. Those type of things that I wouldn't do without the Holy Spirit telling me so, those are my calling.
When everybody else is occupied with their own things and their own wants and desires and all of a sudden you have this thing piercing your heart to do different, that's your calling.
Let's not avoid our calling, because that's what makes us holy and separated by Jesus Christ our Lord.
"You expected much, but see, it turned out to be little. What you brought home, I blew away. Why?" declares the LORD Almighty. "Because of my house, which remains a ruin, while each of you is busy with your own house."
Haggai 1:9
"You have planted much, but harvested little. You eat, but never have enough. You drink, but never have your fill. You put on clothes, but are not warm. You earn wages, only to put them in a purse with holes in it."
This is what the LORD Almighty says: "Give careful thought to your ways."
Haggai 1:6-7
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."
Matthew 6:33
