Vocations

“A man offers his humanity to Christ, so that Christ may use him as an instrument of salvation, making him as it were into another Christ. Unless we grasp the mystery of this ‘exchange,’ we will not understand how it can be that a young man, hearing the words ‘Follow me!,’ can give up everything for Christ, in the certainty that if he follows this path he will find complete fulfillment.”

                                           -- Pope John Paul II
