It is in the stormiest skies that eagles find their true calling.
Matshona Dhliwayo
Sir, what can be said of these things? Is it the arm of the flesh that hath done these things? Is it the wisdom and counsel, or strength of man? It is the Lord only. God will curse that man and his house that dares to think otherwise. Sir, you see the work is done by a Divine leading. God gets into the hearts of men, and persuades them to come under you.
Oliver Cromwell
Start where you are-do anything you can do, and do everything you can do, until you find something you must do! That something is probably your spiritual gift.
Jim George
Everyone has their own calling, but not everyone is looking for the phone, or either they missed the call, or just not answered it.
Anthony Liccione
The doctrine of vocation deals with how God works through human beings to bestow His gifts. God gives us this day our daily bread by means of the farmer the banker, the cooks, And the lady at the check-out counter. He creates new life – the most amazing miracle of all – by means of mothers and fathers. He protects us by means of the police officers, firemen, and our military. He creates. Through artists. He heals by working through doctors, nurses, and others whom He has gifted, equipped, and called to the medical professions.
Gene Edward Veith Jr.
the struggle is not with others, but within us, to do what we are called to do
John Geddes
When Christianity takes itself seriously, it must either renounce or master the world.
Roland H. Bainton
What Happens To A Man Is Less Significant Than What Happens Within Him.
Louis L. Mann
God's plan is to make much of the man, far more of him than of anything else. Men are God's method. The Church is looking for better methods; God is looking for better men.
E.M.Bounds
You have tremendous gifts to give; God sent them with you when you came to this earth. And while you might forget them, or doubt they exist, God does not forget and He will show them to you. As soon as your gifts are dedicated to His work, they will blossom. Chains that might have held you back for years will dissolve. And you will feel free. You will learn that your spirit is bigger than your circumstances, as soon as you put your spirit first.
Marianne Williamson
Fame and fortune are calling. Are we taking the call or blocking the number?
Nicole Richie
Don't be in a hurry about finding your work in the world for yourself—you are not old enough to judge for yourself yet; but just look about you in the place you find yourself in, and try to make things a little better and honester there.
Thomas Hughes
...you don't need a calling to minister love...
John Geddes
When a homemaking aunt scolds a niece for following her evangelistic passion instead of domestic pursuits, her reply is interesting. First, she clarifies that God's individual call on her doesn't condemn those in more conventional roles. Then, she says she can no more ignore the cry of the lost than her aunt can the cry of her child.
George Eliot
She handled it (her trade) with all the grace that belongs to mastery.
George Eliot
Inside my head / or in a distant / Galaxy / Soft I hear it / Calling me." from the song "In the Blackness" in the poetry collection "Terra Affirmative".
Jay Woodman
The voice of love calls to you, my son.
Wayne Gerard Trotman
Miss Fields," said a servant, stepping into the room and closing the door, "There is a visitor for you. Are you in?"Clare blinked. "Yes, obviously.""Ah. Miss Fields, I should advise -- you may be in without being 'in', if you prefer," he said, offering her a tray. There was a calling card on it; Arthur Conan Doyle, Edinburgh.
Sam Starbuck
The point of the calling was, quite simply, that it was appointed by God to serve neighbors. If along the way some self-fulfillment came as well, there was nothing wrong with that, but it was hardly the point of the calling.
Gilbert Meilaender
We live our days in the microscopic, but something within us calls us to dream in the cosmic – every one of us. And within us exists those two worlds: the world as it is and the world as we think it ought to be.
A.J. Darkholme
You are here on earth to fulfill a specific purpose.May you recognised your calling.
Laillah Gifty Akita
Live up to your highest calling on earth.
Lailah Gifty Akita
Nothing's work unless you'd rather be doing something else.
JOHN C MAXWELL
At present we have no clear grasp of the principle that every man should do the work for which he is fitted by nature!
Dorothy L. Sayers
A job is a vocation only if someone else calls you to do it for them rather than for yourself. And so our work can be a calling only if it is reimagined as a mission of service to something beyond merely our own interests. Thinking of work mainly as a means of self-fulfillment and self-realization slowly crushes a person.
Timothy J. Keller
Not sorry, not calling, not cryingAll will pass like smoke of white apple treesSeized by the gold of autumn,I will no longer be young.
Sergei Yesenin
Everyone will be forgotten, nothing we do will make any difference, and all good endeavours, even the best, will come to naught. Unless there is God. If the God of the Bible exists, and there is a True Reality beneath and behind this one, and this life is not the only life, then every good endeavour, even the simplest ones, pursued in response to God's calling, can matter forever.
Timothy J. Keller
We are not wise enough, pure enough, or strong enough to aim and sustain such a single motive over a lifetime. That way lies fanaticism or failure. But if the single motive is the master motivation of God's calling, the answer is yes. In any and all situations, both today and tomorrow's tomorrow, God's call to us is the unchanging and ultimate whence, what, why, and whither of our lives. Calling is a 'yes' to God that carries a 'no' to the chaos of modern demands. Calling is the key to tracing the story line of our lives and unriddling the meaning of our existence in a chaotic world.
Os Guinness
Like a magnetized needle floating on a surface of oil, Resistance will unfailingly point to true North - meaning that calling or action it most wants to stop us from doing.We can use this. We can use it as a compass. We can navigate by Resistance, letting it guide us to that calling or action that we must follow before all others.
Steven Pressfield
God is using all of your experiences, both good and bad, to develop your character to match your calling.
Lysa TerKeurst
Listening to intuition is similar to watching wind wiggle a pond. Allow the ripples to move you where you need to be.
Soul Dancer
One of the greatest advantages of singleness is the potential for greater focus on Christ and accomplishing work for Him.
Elizabeth George
Follow your passion; Do not get married to it, though.
Ashok Kallarakkal
Calling resists privatization by insisting on the totality of faith. Calling resists politicization by demanding a tension with every human allegiance and association. Calling resists polarization by requiring an attitude toward, and action in, society that is inevitably transforming because it is constantly engaged. Grand Christian movements will rise and fall. Grand campaigns will be mounted and grand coalitions assembled. But all together such coordinated efforts will never match the influence of untold numbers of followers of Christ living out their callings faithfully across the vastness and complexity of modern society.
Os Guinness
Sometimes your talent can steer you away from your passion.
Fawn Weaver
Ah, God, it were an easy Matter to choose a Calling hadone all Time to live in! I should be fifty Years aBarrister, fifty a Physician, fifty a Clergyman, fifty aSoldier! Aye, and fifty a Thief, and fifty a Judge! AllRoads are fine Roads, beloved Sister, none more thananother, so that with one Life to spend I am a Manbare-bumm'd at Taylors with Cash for but one pair ofBreeches, or a Scholar at Brookstalls with Money for asingle Book: to choose ten were no Trouble; to choose one,impossible! All Trades, all Crafts, all Professions arewondrous, but none is finer than the rest together. Icannot choose, sweet Anna: twixt Stools my Breech fallethto the Ground!
John Barth
What makes your heart leap?
Jonas Salk
Thinking about work as a day job has made a big difference in the way I approach what I do. It also helped me not to confuse who I am with what I do.
Bob Goff
In every age there comes a time when a leader must come forward to meet the needs of the hour. Therefore, there is no potential leader who does not have the opportunity to make a positive difference in society.
Winston S. Churchill
We are peculiar people called to fulfill a great mission.
Lailah Gifty Akita
Who's calling?""Don't insult me like that," the voice says.I stop. Was I just insulting?
Peter Hedges
It's a gift of tranquility when your adult desires mesh with your childhood background. I don't quite know why mine didn't, although I think books, again, are partly to blame.
Maureen Corrigan
Teddy Roosevelt "had relished "every hour" of every day as president. Indeed, (he was) fearing the "dull thud" he would experience upon returning to private life.
Doris Kearns Goodwin
A call to duty, a call for service.
Lailah Gifty Akita
The rhythms of the game complemented the lifestyle he preferred.
Nicholas Dawidoff
Purpose declares that the trajectory of my existence and the course of human history were intentionally set to collide at this precise moment in time because what I have to offer human history is desperately needed at this precise time.
Craig D. Lounsbrough
Your Heart's Desire is the Voice of God, and that Voice must be obeyed sooner or later.
Emmet Fox
A person's true identity can often be difficult to discern, even to themselves, causing one to question their character, their calling, their very existence. For most, time gives clarity, but for others, these questions remained unanswered for an identity can not be fully defined when it is a guarded secret.
Emily Thorne
To live out God’s plan for your life calls for you to discipline yourself…and your body. To push yourself. To deny yourself.
Elizabeth George
Our problem as Americans -- at least, among my race and gender -- is that we resist the very idea of limits, regarding limits of all sorts as temporary and regrettable impositions on our lives.
Parker J. Palmer
The only Christian work is good work well done.
Dorothy L. Sayers
There is, in fact, a paradox about working to serve the community, and it is this: that to aim directly at serving the community is to falsify the work; the only way to serve the community is to forget the community and serve the work.
Dorothy L. Sayers
I am unique.I have mission.I have a calling.I will fulfill my highest potential and calling.
Lailah Gifty Akita
Your calling is to be faithful to God where you are, and in doing this all work is sacred, spiritual, and worthy of your full attention and energy. When you get to work, you are not entering a secular environment as much as you are bringing the sacred into the world by following Christ wherever you are.
Joe Thorn
Speaking of Newton but also commenting more broadly on education and the Enlightenment: "I have seen a professor of mathematics only because he was great in his vocation, buried like a king who had done well by his subjects.
Voltaire
You were born into the world to fulfill a specific purpose in life. May you recognised your unique calling.
Lailah Gifty Akita
God does not choose people because of their ability, but because of their availability.
Brother Andrew
Vocation at its deepest level is, 'This is something I can't not do, for reasons I'm unable to explain to anyone else and don't fully understand myself but that are nonetheless compelling.
Parker J. Palmer
Our task is to carry the Lord's peace into every situation, into every duty.
Davis Bunn
Surrender is a choice, it is never a calling.
