Veni Sancte Spiritus!

As the Gospel of John reminds us today, at the beginning of the Church’s foundation, Jesus assures us that we are not alone. We are sustained by grace and consoled by the Advocate, the Holy Spirit

The Holy Spirit is present in our participation in the sacraments, instilling in us the courage to go out into the world and live as faithful disciples

Let us ask the Holy Spirit to guide our hearts on this Solemnity of Pentecost.

PRAYER TO THE HOLY SPIRIT by St Augustine:

‘Breathe into me, Holy Spirit, that my thoughts may all be holy.
Move in me, Holy Spirit, that my work, too, may be holy.
Attract my heart, Holy Spirit, that I may love only what is holy.
Strengthen me, Holy Spirit, that I may defend all that is holy.
Protect me, Holy Spirit, that I may always be holy.
Amen.’

A Roman Catholic Christian living in the TX, USA area seeking to make the world a better place. Our call to mission as being made in the image and likeness of God is two-fold: to have authentic relationships with our fellow man, and to have an authentic personal encounter with our living God through His Son Jesus Christ who is, who was and who will always be. Let us not bicker, spew hate, or worry about trivial matters when we can become better images of our self to walk humbly with our loving God.
