The last few weeks we’ve been hearing about our very unique calling from God so that we can experience his joy for our lives. We learned that discernment is the prayerful way to figure out what that calling is. But what does St. Ignatius have to say about discernment? Before his conversion, Ignatius had his own plans for his life, until he realized that God was calling him to something greater. He invited God into his life and into his decision making. St. Ignatius offers us the Suscipe, which is a prayer that offers up one’s desires in order to ask God to reveal his plans. We can invite God into our decision making, both the small everyday choices and the large impactful choices, with this prayer.
As we wrap up the school year and look to the future, watch the full video to reflect on how the Suscipe can help you to discern your vocation each and every day.
