Prayer for Vocations
1st February 2011
God has created me to do him some definite service;
He has committed some work to me
which he has not committed to another.
I have my mission – I may never know it in this life, but I shall be told it in the next.
I have a part in this great work;I am a link in a chain, a bond of connection between persons.
He has not created me for naught.
I shall do good, I shall do his work;
I shall be an angel of peace,
a preacher of the truth in my own place,
while not intending it,
if I do but keep his commandments
and serve him in my calling.
Therefore I will trust him.
Whatever, wherever I am,
I can never be thrown away.
I ask not to see,
I ask not to know,
I ask simply to be used.
Blessed John Henry Newman
