The reason I wrote Prayer To Know One's Vocation(the link is below)
http://je-re-mi-ah-tan.blogspot.com/2010/07/prayer-to-know-ones-vocation-lord-jesus_1173.html

I felt that this prayer written by Bishop James Chan
This prayer was in a card form give to me by Fr.Christoper Lee


If you think that you might have a calling from God and your uncertain
and u have no direction in what to do and when you talk about this to your friends and your friends say pray and ask for His guidance

This prayer might really help you

Many people are afraid when they feel that they might have a calling from God
Including me. Some part of me was really happy that I might be called by God to serve Him
It was a great honuor and privilege if I was serving God as a priest or religious life

And most part of me was terrified and really scared
I was so uncertain about myself and this calling
Many thought came to my mind
Some reasons are

  • I'm not holy and i'm always sinning...
  • I'm not fit to be in the religious life
  • I would be a bad example for others(since many people look up to priest and layman)
  • II need a companion cause I get bored easily
  • I want to get MARRIED
Then I realise that many of the "reasons" I have are actually EXCUSES because I was afraid to commit myself and entire life to God
I realise that I can give God a thousand excuses why I can't let Him use me as an intrument of His church
I actually should give a thousand reasons why I should and can let God make me an instrument of His church

So to those who think they might have a calling from God and u feel that you are unworthy or afraid
Trust me dear brothers and sisters
That God doesn't look upon our sins because He is Merciful and Loving
He has a plan for us all...
So do not be afraid to follow God and be his disciple
He has a plan for us all
