O Holy Spirit

Prayer to the Holy Spirit
O Holy Spirit, Soul of my soul I adore Thee.
Enlighten, guide, strengthen and console me.
Tell me what I ought to do, then command me to do it.
I promise to be submissive to all that Thou asks of me,
and to accept all that Thou permittest to happen to me,
only show me what is Thy will. Amen.
-Joseph Cardinal Mercier
Today’s Reflection:
Why is being submissive to the guidance and power of the Holy Spirit so important? In what instances did Our Blessed Mother give us her example of being submissive to the Holy Spirit? How is Our Lord calling you to surrender today?
