My experience of 22 years of the priesthood is that the vocation is realized little by little. And especially in the phases when I would like to throw everything away when I don&#8217;t see how things can go on when I blindly cling to the path that I have recognized as mine. It is precisely in these phases that I have been able to experience that God calls again and again: when something attracts me stronger than my own will; when I realize that I am not only holding on but that I am being held back; when I can experience that God faithfully accompanies my path.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Translation of refrain :<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center\">I hold you tight even when I can&#8217;t see.<br \/>I hold you tight, even if I don&#8217;t understand you.<br \/>With all my strength, for you are worth giving everything.<br \/>Hold me tight!<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vocation-music-award.com\/deutschland\/contest\/?contest=video-detail&#038;video_id=363\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#fff;background-color:#0131B4;border-color:#012890;border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"color:#fff;padding:8px 24px;font-size:18px;line-height:27px;border-color:#4e6fcb;border-radius:9px;text-shadow:0px 0px 0px #ffffff\"><i class=\"sui sui-arrow-circle-right\" style=\"font-size:18px;color:#fff\"><\/i> <strong>I vote for this song<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>[\/su_panel]<hr \/>[su_panel background=&#8221;#fffcf0&#8243; color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; border=&#8221;0px solid #dddddd&#8221; shadow=&#8221;0px 0px 0px #ffffff&#8221;]<h3 style=\"text-align: center\">Ich m\u00f6chte dir dienen, und ich finde den Weg nicht &#8211; P\u00e8re Markus Wittal<\/h3><p><iframe title=\"Ich m\u00f6chte dir dienen und ich finde den Weg nicht | Lied von Markus Wittal\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vnLSwvM9IX8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>History of the song :<\/strong><\/p><div style=\"text-align: center\">Vocation has a lot to do with longing, with the question of what is essential and being touched by Jesus Christ. This idea is expressed very succinctly in the thoughts of Philip Neri. He is one of my favorite saints because he spread the joy of Christ. Many &#8220;shock prayers&#8221; &#8211; short Twitter messages to God, so to speak &#8211; are known from him. Philip Neri was a seeker of God throughout his life, a person who strongly radiated the closeness of God.<\/div><div style=\"text-align: center\">\u00a0<\/div><div style=\"text-align: center\">And yet, these texts express the paradox of the search: Closeness and distance, vocation is a journey. In this song, such words are combined with a scriptural word that became my primatial motto. It expresses that Jesus&#8217; decision for his disciples is more important than what the disciples can do for him. The idea of submitting a song to the Vocation Music Award came very late, in May to be precise, when I was studying Saint Philip Neri. Perhaps his thoughts will inspire you too: Longing becomes a search, which becomes determination in the encounter with Christ.<\/div><p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Translation of the refrain :<\/strong><\/p><p style=\"text-align: center\">I want to serve you and I cannot find the way. <br \/>I want to do good, and I cannot find the way. <br \/>I want to love you, and I cannot find the way. <br \/>I do not yet know you, my Jesus, because I do not seek you.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vocation-music-award.com\/deutschland\/contest\/?contest=video-detail&#038;video_id=382\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-default\" style=\"color:#fff;background-color:#0131B4;border-color:#012890;border-radius:9px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"color:#fff;padding:8px 24px;font-size:18px;line-height:27px;border-color:#4e6fcb;border-radius:9px;text-shadow:0px 0px 0px #ffffff\"><i class=\"sui sui-arrow-circle-right\" style=\"font-size:18px;color:#fff\"><\/i> <strong>I vote for this song<\/strong><\/span><\/a>[\/su_panel]<p style=\"text-align: center\">\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year, 2 German priests from the Emmanuel Community are participating in the Vocation Music Award, a prize created in 2019 around the theme of God&#8217;s call on our lives.
