修道职业的辨别力

欲望

洞察力  to a vocation to the 本尼迪克特ine monastery of Mount Angel is not so much about “What do I want to do?而是“上帝要我做什么??” The Lord wants us to know joy in this life and the fullness of joy in the life to come. 遵行天父的旨意 正如耶稣所做的，才能带给我们喜乐. No amount of “the good things” in life or “getting what I want” will satisfy.

呼叫

安吉尔山的本笃会修道生活是严格的. 祷告和工作(让我们一起努力吧!) in community define the days, months, and years in the monastery. Yet, it is a happy and fulfilling life lived among brothers who love you.

作为本笃会教徒，我们遵循圣. 本尼迪克特, which has proven to be a sure way to holiness for 1,500 years. St. 本尼迪克特建议我们， “难道不允许新人进入修道院生活吗, ‘but test the spirits to see if they are from God'” (1 John 4:1). The concern must be whether the newcomer truly seeks God and whether he shows eagerness for the Work of God (i.e.祷告)，以及顺服和试炼. He should be clearly told the hardships and trials that will lead him to God” (RB第58章).1-2, 7-8). 在他的统治之初，圣. 本尼迪克写道, “我这条信息是给你的, 然后, 如果你准备放弃自己的意志, 而且一劳永逸, and armed with the strong and noble weapons of 服从 to do battle for the true King, 主基督.”

“As we progress in this way of life and in faith, we shall run on the path of God’s commandments,
我们的心中充满了难以言喻的爱的喜悦.”
