When the Best Decision is to “Stay the Course”

“Is God calling me somewhere else?”

Sometimes in our discernment—especially over major life choices, like our vocations—we start second guessing our decisions. Sometimes, we make hasty decisions because we thought we “messed up” our discernment. But most of the time… the best decision is to “stay the course”.

As the scriptures says, “Let your yes be yes and your no be no.”

Today, Fr. Mike continues his series on vocational discernment and offers some helpful guidance on how and when to make life-altering choices.
