Problem is lack of purpose, direction, focus. Lack of calling. If asked about calling, most answer by saying what we do for living. Calling has come to mean job or vocation. Vocational training is job training.
Vocational counseling refers to career choices.
When God calls to vocation, gives daily labor religious dignity and tells of spiritual significance of everyday working life. Our world no longer sees vital connection between God, work, and human community. God does not call a few into special religious work leaving the rest without a calling. God calls everyone to specific tasks in this world, in loving service to human community. Some callings are obviously church related, some are not.
