John 16:12-15, Gospel for Sunday, June 12th The Most Holy Trinity – 3 Persons/1 God
Pentecost: Fr. Patrick’s Holy Homework
This week, be very intentional about praying for a half-hour every day in silence with God. Ask God to show you the areas of your life where you haven’t been alive to living in the Holy Spirit. Don’t be afraid. God will reveal these areas to heal these areas, not to condemn you. I recommend you keep a journal and as God reveals the areas He wants to heal…write out what God is giving you (it’s all grace!) to bring that area of your life to life in the Holy Spirit. It’s the right kind of wildfire you’ll be opening your life to…
