"Call" sinks its talons into our hearts. The awareness that we are yet meant to do more than we are signals where God lies in wait for us to become what we are meant to be. Then the spiritual life, the awareness of the driving energy within that is greater than ourselves, greater than anything around us, begins to happen. We give ourselves over to what is even greater than the self, the idol to which we had previously devoted our lives.
— Joan Chittister, Called To Question
