The call to the priesthood... what does it sounds like?
Everyone has a call from God.
Everyone is called to be a Gift.

You too have a call in life, a special reason for being born into the universe that only your unique person can fulfill. There is a Divine Plan for your life, a sacred destiny that only you can fulfill.

"Before the foundation of the world, the Father chose us to be holy in Christ, according to the purpose he has for all things. Ephesians 1:4-11

Prayer is essential to your search for God's call to you. Only if you are speaking with God, can God speak with you.

"Speak, Lord, your servant is listening." If you do not live out your calling, it will forever go unanswered. A singular crucial force in the development of humanity will be lost.

Vocation Prayer
My Lord God, I have no idea of where I am going. I do not see the road ahead of me. I hope that I will never do anything apart from your desire for me. I know that if I do this you will lead me by the right road. Therefore I will trust you always. I will not fear for you are with me. Lord, give me courage and love and lasting dedication to your will.
-Thomas Merton
