The Call

December 2, 2012February 13, 2013 Posted in Catholic, spirituality

I was frantic.

Was I pregnant

yet again?

Then,

The unexpected.

A blanket of peace

Wrapped around me.

Suddenly,

Joy,

Light,

Laughter

Within.

I heard words

In my heart;

”This is you call.

This is your vocation.

This is your witness to the world. “

Confusion.

”People don’t understand

I look foolish.”

A whispered answer,

”You will be a witness to

Life and Joy.”

I said,

”Yes”

To Life

And

Discovered

Unexpected

JOY.
