The Bible contains many stories about people who are called by God. One well-known story concerns the vocation of Moses, which led to the liberation of the entire people of Israel from Pharaoh’s oppression. Although he did have hesitations, Moses ultimately did what God asked of him.
Even more famous is the vocation of Mary, who was to become the mother of Jesus. Instead of raising objections when she was asked to cooperate with God’s plan, Mary was able to completely entrust herself to God, perhaps without fully understanding or knowing what to expect.
