Finding Direction

Where are you going?

Do you know how to get there?

Here are four simple steps to help you find direction in your life:

  • First, pray for direction, spend time in a quite place.

  • Talk with others, consider your gifts, seek direction from your pastor or priest, a parent, or a spiritual guide.

  • Listen to your feelings - do you know where you find discomfort, or what brings you discouragement? Where do you find satisfaction? What gives you energy for living? What brings you peace and joy?

  • Above all, trust in who you are and know that God loves you and wants the best for you.

    For me prayer is an aspiration of the heart,
    it is a simple glance directed to heaven,
    it is a cry of gratitude and love in the midst of trial
    as well as joy.
    Finally, it is something…. Which expands my soul
    And unites me to Jesus.

    St Therese of Lisieux - Carmelite
