We are nine days away from the Great Feast of the Pentecost; the Feast of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit, can be termed as the “Shy-Person of the Trinity”.
When we consider the works of the Holy Spirit, it absolutely amazing… He is the One who sanctifies, the One who searches the depths of our hearts, the One who intercedes, the One who reveals, the One who leads and directs, the One who convicts us of sin, the One who disciplines, the One who creates and recreates, the One who unites, the One who empowers and counsels, the One who inspires etc……
…. The Holy Spirit is mighty.. …and yet, very often, in our worship, the Holy Spirit takes a backseat!
….He remains the Silent Worker behind every Divine Act
..He remains the unknown figure of the Great Drama of Salvation,
…. He remains the Gentle Presence behind every Holy Touch of God
We usually, even have our prayers more to God the Father, and to Jesus, the Son…but very less to the Holy Spirit.
The Great Feast of the Pentecost Feast, is a reminder to invite the Holy Spirit deeper into our lives and to experience HIS LIVING, LOVING and LOVING PRESENCE in our lives!
The Lord has promised the gift of the Spirit to all those who ask Him.
After the Ascension of the Lord, the Disciples were gathered together with our Blessed Mother and were praying, when the Spirit was poured out on them!
We begin today a Nine-Day Preparation for this Wonderful Feast of the Holy Spirit.
>> We reflect, in short, some of the functions and roles of the Holy Spirit
>> We seek to grow in love of the Holy Spirit and learn to have Him as our walking-companion!
>> As we prepare our hearts for this Feast, let us pray with our Blessed Mother, for the Gift of this Gentle and Dynamic Spirit.
Come Holy Spirit…Come into our hearts… and renew us, in your mighty love and fire!
May God Bless us!
