The Father is at work

Theme: Personal Prayer
Grace: To live our entire life in unity with Jesus
Scripture: John 5:17-30

"Outside of Christ only darkness and sin exist. Whoever rejects Christ remains without light and has no idea which way to go. In the innermost depth of his being he is disoriented..." (from In Conversation with God, vol. 2 p. 177)
"It is clear that to seek sanctity in the middle of this world...lies in an effective union with the Lord...(which) affects the whole of one's activity. These practices will lead you, almost without realizing it, to contemplative prayer." (p. 181)

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.
