What is your mission?

The question is put to me: "What is your mission?"
The answer eludes me but these are the
readings that seemed to speak to my heart today:

"God is love and in himself he lives a mystery of personal loving communion. Creating the human race in his own image . . . God inscribed in the humanity of man and woman the vocation, and thus the capacity and responsibility, of love and communion. . . . Love is the fundamental and innate vocation of every human being." ~CCC 2331, 2392

"The explosion of passion and purpose takes place when unique abilities and needs meet." 
~ from Focus in Best Lent Ever, March 21, 2018

"When will the happy time come when the divine Mary will be established Mistress and Queen of all hearts, in order that she may subject them fully to the empire of her great and holy Jesus? When will souls breathe Mary as the body breathes air? When that time comes, wonderful things will happen in those lowly places where the Holy Ghost, finding His dear spouse, as it were, reproduced, in all souls, shall come in with abundance, and fill them to overflowing with His gifts, and particularly with the gift of wisdom, to work miracles of grace."
— St. Louis de Montfort, p.118-19

Do they somehow tie together and answer the elusive question of mission? Is mission the same as vocation?
Lord, grant me the wisdom to know my mission today. Teach me your ways, Oh Lord.
