What do I do about this Judmental World we live in?
I've been called to Vocation but it is very hard to hold on with people's talking. I know i should live for Christ and not worry about what people say but its just hard sometimes can ne one help me?
PLEASE PRAY FOR ME AND MY VOCATION :liturgy:

You are in my prayers tonight, brother. I pray that you may discern God's will. It is hard to deal with the world. Our Lord told us we would be persecuted, but we must take up our crosses on follow Him. The Lord will give you strength to do this, He will never give you a situation that you can't handle with his grace!

Oh I feel your pain! I so wanted to be a Sister. Never let people try and talk you out of what is truly in your heart. Definately speak to your spiritual director about the things on your mind. Your director can help.
As for me, it seems to me our Lord had other plans though sometimes I miss certain parts of my journey. I was due to go January the year before last. Things happened but, some time passed and eventually I found out my calling was not at all what I thought. I met a man, a gentleman, sincere and kind. We were together for several months and happy in the relationship. Lets just say he needed somone to help him through a rough time. We are together still. He needed someone. He needed support. My brother we found out would need a kidney. I gave him a kidney. Me it seems He needed else were. The Lord places us were He wants us. I finally opened up to this. As for you, your story is different. Let nothing come between you and God's will. I know you can do it. I know how difficult the discerning process is but, then what worth doing is easy? He is with you and will help you along your journey. He lights a holy fire in you when He calls you, a flame that may at times seem dim but, in time will be brighter than the sun. Open your heart and say to Him "Your will be done". Offer up your trials as well. I hope I helped... even just a little
God bless

Brother it is a struggle that you do not face alone. Many of us face it. We go on though, firmly focused on Christ and allowing Him and our prayers for one another to be our support. I will keep you in my prayers. Please pray for me :)
