Question

thanks crasy horse - i admire your beliefs

Answer 1

Yes, I have.
I work with English as a Second Language children, and I LOVE it.
The kids are wonderful, I love other languages and most every day is fantastic.

Answer 2

Sometimes I think that, especially when I call pizza delivery!

I think that your true calling finds you, not you it. In the meantime, just go around living your life the best you can for God, serving Him according to His Word, and then you know that you are sure to be doing His Will, whether you are successful what you do, or not.

Noah preached for 120 years and had 0 converts, and yet he is still called the Preacher in the New Testament and he is responsible for everyone's existence who does get saved (as he is our great, great, great....great grandfather who found grace in God's eyes). I am sure that he was wondering the same thing, "what was he contributing to his industry?"

The answer was, "nothing." He was contributing to God's industry. This example is repeated throughout the bible, but Noah stands out a lot (Abram [Abraham], Daniel, Joseph, Jerimiah, and others had to go through the same sort of thing.)

Abraham is a good example too, because his contribution, his measure of success did not start coming in until after his death -- and it is still coming in. In other words, he could not see the results, he had to walk in faith believing that they would come if he devote his life to "God's industry" and not to his own.

Well that was the simplistic answer, which you got because I am still waking up. :)

Answer 3

True Calling -
I have to say that is an interesting question to say the least.

I have been searching like ever one else on this earth what is my purpose why an I here.

For a long time money and material things were the top of my list to be followed by looking for a meaning full relationship. I was sure that life’s calling was to make yourself happy by just being in the world and running the race to win the cup of glory aka everything that everyone is looking for house, marriage, kids, car, money the list goes on.

After much struggle with my health my life was wending down. Life is not happy, there is always a problem, look at all the nonsense in the world with hunger, war and so on. It wasn't till I hit rock bottom that I started to look in the right place to find my calling, my passion.

I went back to the one who made me and that is not referring to my parents but God.

I fought with Him several times and cried and ran away to many times to count. And no matter what He was always there ready to help me, to forgive me and to guide me again in my search of my calling.

After much time in discovering myself in the eyes of God my Father He called me to become a missionary in a non profit organization that I didn't even heard of or had any idea what they did. I am now working in establishing youth groups in the Catholic church to assist youth in discovering how special they are and how to cope with life stresses with the assistance of God the Father, Jesus the Son and the Holy Spirit Godhead Three in One. (okay that is probably to much for some people to understand so pose it as a question and may be you'll get a good response or talk to your local Catholic priest - it doesn't matter what religion you are questions are good for you and for the catholic church)

And finally to close my rant/blurb I have discerned that my true calling is to enter the Sisterhood this year. I have hear the Lord call me into a new order of nuns who devote themselves to the assistance of others in their faith walk and to assist priest and over all PRAYER.

I am 26 and this is not a normal thing for many to do now a days but that is it who said life is normal.

Answer 4

My true calling is to be a good parent. To teach my children about respect, hard work, and the joys of the outdoors. I am here to teach them the meaning of right and wrong, as well as the golden rule. I teach them to be nice to everyone, but to stand up to those who try to take advantage of them.

Above all that, I teach them to be happy with who they are, and what they have. And, I somehow manage to do all of that while being an atheist. Wonder how that happened.

Answer 5

Native American!!!

Here's Why!!!


Each morning upon rising, and each evening before sleeping, gives thanks for the life within you and for all life, for the good things the Creator has given you and for the opportunity to grow a little more each day. Consider your thoughts and actions of the past day and seek for the courage and strength to be a better person. Seek for the things that will benefit others (everyone).

2. Respect. Respect means "To feel or show honor or esteem for someone or something; to consider the well being of, or to treat someone or something with deference or courtesy". Showing respect is a basic law of life.

3. Once a council has decided something in unity, respect demands that no one speak secretly against what has been decided. If the council has made an error, that error will become apparent to everyone in its own time.

4. Be truthful at all times, and under all conditions.

5. Always treat your guests with honor and consideration. Give of your best food, your best blankets, the best part of your house, and your best service to your guests.

6. The hurt of one is the hurt of all; the honor of one is the honor of all.

7. Receive strangers and outsiders with a loving heart and as members of the human family.

8. All the races and tribes in the world are like the different colored flowers of one meadow. All are beautiful. As children of the Creator they must all be respected.

9. To serve others, to be of some use to family, community, nation, and the world is one of the main purposes for which human beings have been created. Do not fill yourself with your own affairs and forget you’re most important talks. True happiness comes only to those who dedicate their lives to the service of others.

10. Observe moderation and balance in all things.

11. Know those things that lead to your well-being and those things that lead to your destruction.

12. Listen to and follow the guidance given to your heart. Expect guidance to come in many forms; in prayer, in dreams, in times of quiet solitude, and in the words and deeds of wise Elders and friends.

I've been a nurse for 30 years. I'm also an artist (which is what I originally went to college for). So I guess I have two callings, though I have to admit nursing is more satisfying, emotionally and financially.
