"You are rewarded not according to your work or your time but according to the measure of your Love." St Catherine of Siena, Dominican
For a while now, I have been praying for discernment on where I should "be" with regard to my Christian purpose... what ministry, etc.
I have been interested in the Lay Carmelites for some time, so I googled them today, in the process, I happened upon a little information about "Lay Dominicans" What I read really spoke to me, so I am considering taking a longer look.
Basically, Lay Dominicans have an ecclesiastical mission of preaching of truth "in accordance with their own life". They are lay people, married, single etc., devoted to prayer, community, study and preaching. Bringers of the Word to the world in our day-to-day routines, responsibilities, recreation, etc.
I don’t really have more to say at this point... I thought I would put it here as a form of prayer and perhaps further discernment.
It is all about Love.
