God's Calling for our Vocation

Calling (or vocation) is the truth that God calls us to himself so decisively that everything we are, everything we do, and everything we have is invested with a special devotion and dynamism lived out as a response to his summons and service…

Our primary calling as followers of Christ is by him, to him, and for him.

Our secondary calling, considering God who is as sovereign, is that everyone, everywhere, and in everything should think, speak, live, and act entirely for him… we can therefore properly say that as a matter of secondary calling that we are called to homemaking or to the practice of law or to art history.



Os Guiness, one of the sharpest mind in American and part pf the Trinity Forum rightly helps us in our understanding of calling and vocation. This is a good book for those who seeks to understand the call of God on our lives

    BANGALORE, India - Doctors began operating Tuesday on a 2-year-old girl born with four arms
    and four legs in an extensive surgery that they hope will leave the girl with a normal body, a hospital official said.
    The girl is joined to a "parasitic twin" that stopped developing in the mother's womb.
    The surviving fetus absorbed the limbs, kidneys and other body parts of the undeveloped fetus.
