Hanging on His Words

Luke 19:45-48

"But they could find no way to accomplish their purpose because all the people were hanging on his words."

This says to me that the enemy cannot get in and accomplish his purpose if I am "hanging on his words." And that there is protection in the presence of others who are hanging on his words.

From Magnificat:

"The liturgy, faithfully celebrated, should be a long term course in heart-expansion, making us more and more capable of the totality of love that there is in the heart of Christ.

It is not the immediate feeling that is important; that may or may not come. What matters is that we should be, slowly and quietly, molded by this rehearsal for and anticipation of the worship of heaven. It is a schooling for paradise." (quoting Fr. Simon Tugwell, OP)

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.
