Do THIS to Hear God's Will For Your Life | Ft. Sr. Mary Rachel Capets | Last Call Ep. 6

Podcast cover

Pints With Aquinas

Discernment of a vocation—whether to marriage or religious life—functions as a journey rather than a hidden secret to be guessed. God communicates through personal, understandable means, making the "next right step" the most critical focus for those experiencing decision paralysis. Fear often distorts the process, prompting individuals to choose paths based on avoidance rather than genuine attraction to a good. Sr. Mary Rachel, a Dominican nun, emphasizes that a true call aligns with one's ultimate happiness and requires a foundation of daily prayer and openness to grace. Rather than seeking perfection, individuals should prioritize honesty about their desires and seek counsel from trusted mentors. Ultimately, living in the present moment while remaining attentive to the Holy Spirit allows for clarity, as God’s will is revealed through consistent, small steps toward a life of service and love.
