The world has become so rebellious to the gospel, so sure of itself, so proud, that only the "strong wine" of the Spirit can win over its unbelief and lead it out of its human and rationalistic sobriety, which is sometimes called scientific objectivity.
Fr. Cantalamessa, "Sober Intoxication of the Spirit" p. 151

Novena to the Holy Spirit

"Wait for the promise of the Father...you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you." Acts 1:5,6

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit, and they shall be created, and you shall renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray.

O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
