Understanding our calling in life is a theme that runs throughout scripture and teachings from Latter-day Saint prophets. Here’s a summary of how one might discern their divine calling according to these sources:

Scriptures

1. Prayer and Revelation: In James 1:5, we are encouraged to "ask of God" for wisdom, emphasizing the importance of personal revelation. The scriptures teach that through sincere prayer, individuals can receive guidance regarding their life's purpose.
2. Scriptural Study: The scriptures invite us to study the word of God. In Doctrine & Covenants 9:8–9, the Lord instructs Oliver Cowdery to study it "out in your mind," showing the relationship between study, pondering, and revelation.
3. Faith and Works: In James 2:17, we learn that "faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone." Acting in faith on the impressions we receive helps us to perpetually seek and come to know our life's calling.

The consensus from scripture and prophetic teachings is clear: knowing one's calling in life involves diligent seeking through prayer, study, service, and a willingness to act on spiritual promptings. It requires faith, patience, and the recognition of one's spiritual gifts.

By continually striving for personal growth and seeking divine guidance, individuals can increasingly align their lives with God’s will and fulfill their unique callings.
