Question
Dear Padraig,
          
                   Happy Thanksgiving, I have a question I have a recurring call to become a nun again I tried to think about other things such as being married and also dating or having a family one day but I got that calling again,I felt that was God's way of calling me into this message as a way of becoming a sister," I feel like Our lady is telling me something and her image is on the door at my home on the bathroom door as Our lady of Guadelupe, and her son is on the otherside of the door. These images have appeared supernaturally and changes positions too.

Answer
I don't think seeing images on a door would qualify as a calling.

Of you were to tell any religious order that thats why you were thinking of joining they would probably send you to a headshrinker AND WHO INDEED COULD BLAIM THEM??

Happy thanksgiving.
