VOCATIONS

God also calls us to do some kind of work, which may include volunteering, a career, occupation, profession or employment, and the use of our gifts and talents as a service to others. Through the call to work, we build up God's kingdom in different ways, for example, engaging in works of mercy, being part of a Church group or society and living out a particular charism. It builds up society, reflecting the love of Christ. This kind of work does not exploit or take advantage of others, but brings about meaningful work that produces value to humankind. It is a beautiful way of sacrificing oneself in service of others to become more like Christ... A vocation is a calling from God for a special mission in life, unique to each person. The word 'vocation' comes from the Latin word 'vocare' meaning 'a call.' The call comes to us from God who has planned for us our path to the fulness of life. Every vocation is a vocation to love. Those who discern their vocation are free to respond to God..
