Scripture: Matthew 6:19-21
Grace: To break free from selfishness
"Our heart is made for God, and for the noble things of this earth in him. It is useful for us to ask ourselves frequently: What do I give my heart to? Exactly where is my treasure? What is the focal point of my most intimate concern? Is it God, present in the Tabernacle...or could it be unsatisfied selfish dreams..."

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.
