Following the Small Calls

13th Sunday in Ordinary Time In our readings today, we hear a number of call stories: God calling others to follow Him in a particular way.  Whenever one of these calls happens in Scripture...that person is almost always busy!  They have other plans; something else is on the agenda for the day; other big things are already going on in life.  Sound familiar?!  When God calls it's never convenient - it wasn't before and it isn't now.  But as disciples of Jesus Christ we are meant to listen for and answer God's calls to us, no matter how big or small...or inconvenient.  The challenge this week: grow as a disciple of Jesus Christ by listening for and answering a few more of those calls!
