May 24th
“When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul laid [his] hands on them, the holy Spirit came upon them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.”
-Acts 19:5-6
Today’s Reflection:
Do you remember your confirmation, when the Bishop laid his hands on your head and you received the Holy Spirit? Even if you didn’t feel anything, the Holy Spirit is powerful and will work in your life if you are open. Reflect on your confirmation today and pray with open hands and open heart for more of the Spirit.
