Is God Calling You to a Vocation You Don’t Want?

The Fr. Mike Schmitz Catholic Podcast

Show Notes

One of the scariest questions we can ask ourselves is, "What's God's will for my life?"

Fr. Mike Schmitz reminds us that God will never call us to a vocation that we don't want. Even though God has a plan for your life, He is good and will not force you to say yes to something you don't want.

If you're angry or scared about the vocation you feel God is calling you to, don't ignore it, talk with Him about it. Support The Fr. Mike Schmitz Catholic Podcast
