In our religious community, we like to say that there are three Scriptural Signs in vocational discernment that point us in the direction of the Will of God: Peace, Joy, and Fire in the Heart.
Peace- Jeremiah 29:11 says, “I have plans of peace for you, and not of woe.”
Joy- Psalm 119:16 says, “I take delight in your statutes, Lord.”
Fire- In Luke 24:32, the disciples on the way to Emmaus said, "Were not our hearts burning within us while [Jesus] spoke to us on the way and opened the scriptures to us?"
These signs must be constant and lasting—not things that fade after a few moments. If we are attentive to them, they can indicate to us what is or is not
the Will of God.
This is the main theme of our video Vocational Discernment 5,
explained by Friar Volantino.
