Vocation is more about who you are than what you do

The purpose of every vocation, in all of the different spheres in which our multiple vocations occur — the family, the workplace, the culture, and the church — is to love and serve our neighbors. Loving God and loving our neighbors sums up our purpose (Matthew 22:36-40). Having been reconciled to God through Christ, we are then sent by God into the world to love and serve him by loving and serving our neighbors. This happens in vocation. So we can ask of every kind of work we doing, “Am I loving and serving my neighbor, or am I exploiting and tempting him?” (GVeith)
