Beloved of All
I feel the Lord calling me to the priest hood. But i wish to get married. This would ruin my life. Please pray for the Lord to reveal and confirm if this is true.
 
SALM 147.5

Great is our Lord and mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.

JOB 9:4, For God is so wise and so mighty
 
Discernment of one's vocation can be so difficult. I encourage you to continue to pray, especially in front of the Blessed Sacrament, and to really listen to what God has to tell you. Maybe you are not called to the priesthood, but you just feel you should become a priest in order to please God. Well, marriage is also a sacrament of the highest order. Maybe God wishes you to marry, be open to life and have children, be a wonderful father and perhaps become a deacon in your church. Other thing I think you must do is discuss your strivings toward discernment with at least one priest, maybe a few. I am praying very hard for you to make the decision that God has already willed for you. I pray for you in the name of Jesus of Nazareth. Amen and amen.
 
Jesus said: “Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven.†Matthew 18:19
 
Hebrews 4:16

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

Psa 34:17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

My wife MerciMe and I am praying now in Jesus name for your request.
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
