Holy Spirit Novena Day 5
FOR THE SPIRIT OF KINDNESS
Let us bow down in humility at the power and grandeur of the Holy Spirit. Let us worship the Holy Trinity and give glory today to the Paraclete, our Advocate.
O, Holy Spirit, by Your power, Christ was raised from the dead to save us all. By Your grace, miracles are performed in Jesus’ name. By Your love, we are protected from evil. And so, I ask with humility and a beggar’s heart for Your gift of Kindness within me.
Jesus approached sinners with immense kindness. Holy Paraclete, please treat me a humble sinner with the same kindness and give me the ability to treat all others with that kindness as well.
God of all ages, you send out your Spirit to touch the hearts of all people, so that they may believe in You and in Jesus who you sent. Look kindly on me as I prepare my heart for Confirmation and as I listen to Your voice. Open my heart to Your Spirit and bring to fulfillment the good work that You have begun in me. Pour out your blessing upon me that I may grow closer to you and come to know your special love.
Make me an instrument of Your love. Teach me to reverence what is holy in others and to be patient with what I do not understand. Deepen my faith in the Gospel and help me to pass it on through my example to all those I know and come across in my daily life. Continue to guide me and sustain me. Open my mind and soften my heart, so that I may hear You speaking to me. May this time of preparation be a time of blessing for myself and my family and my community and unite us all in your great love.
Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle 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.
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.
