Gift of the Holy Spirit: Wisdom

Theme: The Spirit, the Soul of Christ's body, the Church
Readings: Proverbs 3:13-18
1Cor 12:12-14, 27

Let us pray for a greater outpouring of the Spirit upon the entire Church, and on all who seek God with a desire to serve Him.

Let us pray for an increase of Love for God with our whole heart, mind, soul and strength.

Let us pray that God teach us what to love and how to love well.

"At Babel, human beings seeking to climb to God by their own power fell into discord, unable to understand one another's language. The Word of God borne on the breath of the Spirit at Pentecost restored our ability to understand one another in Christ and to dwell together in peace. Unity is one of the gifts of the Spirit." -- from Magnificat, May 2010, p. 194

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.
