Joe asks:

I am currently discerning my possible vocation to the Priesthood. I feel very greatly that the Lord is calling me to be a Priest, and that I should be in a seminary; the only problem is: I just don't know where.  

I have looked at countless Religious Orders within the Church and, funnily enough, I narrowed it down to about 17, which doesn't help. Now and again, I have great feeling for each of those orders, something like: Yes! It would be great to be in that order etc.  

I feel the same about a lot of the different congregations that I have looked at. What distresses me is that many Priests have told me their vocation stories, and they describe something along the lines of knowing straight away where the Lord wanted them to go etc. You might imagine how hard this is for me to discern. The one thing I don't have is a Spiritual Director, the reason being that I haven't found anyone living locally whom I would like as my Spiritual Director. Only one Priest I can think of lives in my diocese, but quite a distance from me, making regular visits very difficult. However, I do have a regular confessor whom I go to regularly. What should I do in this time of distress? Thanks for your help.
