How do we experience God’s Will for us?
Many struggle with this question. We think we know what God wants, or maybe we
confuse that with what we want. Either way, it seems that the struggle to know
God’s Will is always part of our lives: “ What does the Divine and Infinite
Lover want me to do with my life?”
This past week, a homily at the Newman Centre, a Catholic chaplaincy at the University of Toronto, put things into perspective for me and brought me back to St Therese of Lisieux. The priest contemplated and explored the struggle to know God’s Will by simply saying, “God wants you to be wherever you are, to do whatever you can with love, and in service to others.” I’m slowly getting this lesson!
