St Joseph

Theme: Personal Prayer
Grace: To hear God's call, and obey willingly
Scripture: Matthew 1:1-24

"St Joseph's faith found concrete expression in his obedience to what God asked of him in the midst of mysteries too great for the human mind to grasp." -- from Magnificat, March 2010, p. 287

Are we able, like St Joseph to lay down our own plans, when needed, and obey the Lord, even when we don't understand?

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.
