Devotedly seeking to know the Will of God as revealed
to us in the circumstances of our lives, in the Scriptures, in feedback from
others, within the silence of our hearts, through the Church and the
Commandments of God.
Interiorly silent before the Lord and in interpersonal
relationship, listening for God’s voice, His direction, His will to be
revealed.
Surrendering our plans and our ways to the plans and
the ways of the Lord recognized as we sit quietly at the feet of the Lord,
making our own decisions after doing our research into the issue we are
considering.
Entering into the depths of our hearts, being silent
before God in prayer, as we cling to our desire to follow God’s ways, not
giving into the pressure of others to abandon what we know God is asking of us.
Remembering to seek God’s counsel and wisdom in all of
our decisions.
Never wavering in our wanting to bring our wills into harmony
with the will of God, revealed to us in solitude, in seeking and being open to
others' feedback, in reflecting on the Scriptures, in listening to the Spirit
whispering to us in the depth of our hearts.
Meeting Jesus in the events of our lives, speaking to
us through our feelings, in our thoughts and through our interaction with “angels”
that God sends to help us in our confusion, in our doubts, in our weakened
faith.
Engaging the Spirit to help us know in which state in
life we will become the best version of ourselves: marriage, single life,
priesthood or religious life.
Not basing our decision on the pressures of social
media to seek only pleasure, profit, prestige and power but
To follow the way modeled for us by Jesus: obedience to
the Father, giving one’s all for the good of others, being there for others in
their need for healing, comfort, forgiveness, reconciliation and a turning over
our lives to build up the Kingdom of love.
