Holy Spirit Novena Day 6
FOR THE SPIRIT OF FAITHFULNESS
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, we ask with humility and a beggar’s heart for Your gift of Faithfulness within us.
You, oh Lord, are ever faithful. You are faithful until the end. Though we are weak and distracted, please give myself, our families, and those being confirmed the grace to be faithful to You as you are to us!
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 all candidates for Confirmation as they listen to Your voice. Open their hearts to Your Spirit and bring to fulfillment the good work that You have begun in them. Pour out your blessing upon the candidates that during this time of Sacramental preparation, they may grow closer to you and come to know your special love for them.
As a parent help me to prepare my child for Confirmation, and make me an instrument of Your love. Help me to teach them to reverence what is holy in others and to be patient with what they do not understand. Deepen my faith in the Gospel and help me to pass it on by my example. Continue to guide them and sustain them. Open their minds and soften their hearts, so that they may hear You speaking to them.
May this time of preparation be a time of blessing for families and our 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.
