He does will it.

The leper saw Jesus, he fell prostrate, pleaded with Him, and said, "Lord, if you wish, you can make me clean." Jesus stretched out His hand, touched him, and said, "I do will it. Be made clean." Luke 5:12-18.

One thing to note from today's Scritpure reading is that Jesus does the unexpected. He touches the unclean and makes it whole. And, secondly, as with the leper, he wants to touch that which is untouchable in us and make us whole. Will you let Him ?

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.
