  • what does the topic mean?does it mean that your natural qualities must correspond to the grace that you are asking God to give you??Some people say that the power of a sacrament will recompense for any defect on our part.But the church would not ordain an unfitting man,saying"OK the torrents of grace that this sacrament infuses into your soul will make up for any thing" And you will not marry an awful megalomaniac selfish man (or a drug addict)thinking that the grace of sacrament of matrimony will make him good humble and healthy.
    my main concern:does the topic mean that our Lord will not give the grace of solitude to a person who has psychomotor agitation and another mental illness which makes him talk all day long?Can God give a catholic vocation (religious or marital)to those who are emotionally immature and dependant?
    thank you.
