You haven't done the will of God when you have done it miserably.

Give love to your children, to a wife or husband, to a next-door neighbour.

Once I asked my counsellor for advice about my vocation. I asked, 'How can I know if God is calling me and for what he is calling me?' He answered, 'You will know by your happiness. If you are happy with the idea that God calls you to serve him and your neighbour, this will be the proof of your vocation.'

We have not come into the world to be numbered; we have been created for a purpose; for great things: to love and be loved.
