Stay With Us

"God has made us for Himself, and we cannot live without Him;  we need Him, we hunger and thirst for Him; He is the only One who can satisfy our hearts...

"Spiritual hunger is a sign of a robust spirit...The soul which feels no hunger for God, no need to seek Him, and to find Him...is a dead soul, or at least one which has been weakened and rendered insensible by lukewarmness...

"Stay with us, Lord!  It is the cry of the soul who had found its God and never again wishes to be separated from Him.  Let us too, as the disciples at Emmaus, go in search of the Lord."  --from Divine Intimacy, #141.

Divine Mercy Novena Day #6
Today bring to Me the Meek and Humble Souls and the Souls of Little Children,
and immerse them in My mercy. These souls most closely resemble My Heart. They strengthened Me during My bitter agony. I saw them as earthly Angels, who will keep vigil at My altars. I pour out upon them whole torrents of grace. I favor humble souls with My confidence.

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.
