Pentecost Novena - 6th Day
Wednesday - Understanding Comes Through the Spirit
"Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit that is from
God, so that we may understand the gifts bestowed on us by God." 1 Cor. 2:12
Come, Holy Spirit, fill our hearts with your love.
Set our lives aflame with your gifts.
Grant us wisdom to choose what is good and true;
understanding to embrace your plan of salvation;
right judgment to act according to your will;
courage to share our faith with others;
knowledge to live as disciples of Jesus Christ;
reverence to respond faithfully to your grace each day;
and wonder and awe in your presence.
Inspire us with enthusiasm for our Catholic faith.
Grant us boldness to proclaim the good news of salvation in Jesus Christ,
and help us to bring the transforming power of the gospel to our world.
We make this prayer through Christ, our Lord. Amen
1 Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

Hi Grace,
ReplyDeleteI hope it's a sunny day for you today down there! 8 inches of rain? Wow! I'm sure you're ready for a brighter day!
Hi Victor,
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome :) I like praying Pentecost novenas because it reminds me of the disciples praying in the upper room while they waited for the Holy Spirit to descend upon them!
