it depends on you. If God places it in your heart to do something then do it. I would say go get married. But keep your faith strong, by staying focused.

God would want you to be the women He created you to be. The nuns are married to God per se, and serve their entire life to the service of God. I could not do that. I yearned for the loving arms of my husband and I love being a mother. Both are honorable choices. What does your heart tell you?

Have kids. The reason monks started going alone was to get away from the sin of the world, but that was the opposite of what we were commanded to do when Jesus was saying bye bye. We are to multiply, preach the gospel to the nations, and praise the Lord. You can't do much preaching inside a church in the mountain passes of Lithuania. What i suggest is, get married and have kids. Then create yourself a study room in your house where you can be alone to praise/pray/read/study and whatever else for the glory of God.

You don't need to live in a monastery to be a nun and you can also stay single instead of procreating, there are many other solutions this isn't the medieval ages

Pray about it. Being a nun or a priest is a vocation. Marriage is a sacrament. Ask God, listen He will guide your heart. Trust not in man. YBIC

I'm guessing he would want you to work on your relationship with Him and then ask him if what you are intending on doing is okay with Him. Each of us has different callings in life. However, I would say that one of the greatest things you can do in life is find a loving spouse and have children; you become closer to God through loving relationships and engaging in the creation of life.

God told Adam to multiply and subdue the earth.
So get married and have kids....
Ultimately, do what you believe God is leading you to do.

God said be fruitful and multply. The only exception comes from your free will if you feel dead certain you wouldn't make good babies or be a good parent. And if you can't be a good Parent, how can you possibly help anyone with religion as an "official."

God would want you to obey Him, regardless of what He wants you to do. However, He loves you and wants you to have the desires of your heart, as long as you put Him first in your life.

You need to seek his (God) advise on this. He's the only one that knows the plan for your life. Try him he will not let you down
