Lord, teach us to pray

Scripture: Matthew 6:7-15
Grace: To pray and never lose heart

"Along with vocal prayers, the soul needs the daily food of mental prayer. Thanks to these moments of meditation and to our vocal prayer and aspirations, we will be able to turn our whole day into a continuous praise of God,k in a natural way and sithout any outward display. Just as people in love are always thinking about each other, we will beaware of God's presence. And all our actions, down to the most insignificant, will be filled with spiritual effectiveness. The Lord will look on them with satisfaction and will bless them. --from In Conversation With God, vol. 3, p. 614.

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.
