Some are called to religious life, others to found a family; but how can we know the will of God?

If you don't pray you will not be able to know your vocation."

What about divisions between religions?
"It is you on earth that are divided, in Heaven we are all united!"
"Muslims and Orthodox are, like Catholics, at equality in front of my Son and in front of me. You are all my children!"
