It is the Lord!

Theme: Rejoice! Christ is risen from the dead!
Grace: To know Him
Scripture: John 21:1-14

"The real tragedy for a Christian starts when he can no longer see Jesus in his life; when because of lukewarmness or sin or pride, the horizon becomes clouded over; when things are done as if Jesus were not by his side, as if the Lord had never risen from the dead.

We should pray a lot to Our Lady asking her to help us discover Our Lord in the midst of all the events of our lives; so that we may be able to say very often, It is the Lord! And this, too, whether it be a case of suffering or of joy, whatever the circumstances. By Christ's side, always near him, we will be apostles in the middle of the world, in all circumstances and situations." --from In Conversation With God, vol. 2 p. 325

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.
