Fear not, I will help you

Grace for week 2: Pray for the grace to make straight his paths.
Reading for Thursday: Isaiah 41:13-20; Matthew 11: 1-15

"Our love for Our Lord will express itself in constantly beginning again, as we renew our daily efforts not to be overcome by the love of comfort and laziness, which are always lying in wait for us. The devil sleepeth not, neither yet is the flesh as yet dead; therefore cease not to prepare thyself for the battle; for on thy right hand and on thy left are enemies who never rest...Our guardian angel will give us invaluble help if only we ask him."

"Let us ask Our Lady for the grace never to abandon our interior struggle."
--In Conversation with God Vol I page 91 & 93.

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.
