No man ever spoke like this...

Theme: Personal Prayer
Grace: To receive the words of the Lord with belief
Scripture: John 7:40-53

"Our Lord speaks very simply about the most profound things, and he does so in an attractive and thought-provoking way. His words were understood as much by a doctor of the Law as by the fishermen from Galilee." -- In Conversation With God, vol.2, p. 197

Yet the response among the crowd is division. The same words, different responses. How do I respond to His words?

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.
