Who Walks With You?
- Fr. Pawel Szymanowski, CR
- Luke 2: 41 - 52
A Resurrectionist Vocation Minute for December 29, Feast of the Holy Family
Who walks with you?
The Feast of the Holy Family teaches us that holiness grows through relationships. Jesus grew “in wisdom, age, and favor” under the care of Mary and Joseph.
Similarly, our vocation takes shape within a family, a community, and with the support of spiritual mentors and friends. No one discerns a vocation alone.
Who are the people helping you grow closer to God as you seek to understand His call?
“As Christians, we do not only receive a vocation individually; we are also called together. We are like the tiles of a mosaic. Each is lovely in itself, but only when they are put together do they form a picture. Each of us shines like a star in the heart of God and in the firmament of the universe. At the same time, though, we are called to form constellations that can guide and light up the path of humanity, beginning with the places in which we live”
