What you are describing is the common experience of all Christians. The Apostle Paul speaks of this in Romans 7:18-25: “18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do – this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. 21 So I find this law at work: although I want to do good, evil is right there with me.

We will answer this question in two parts:

1. What does God call us to?

2. Does God call us to a specific role?

What can I do in order to see a vision?
