In today’s episode we speak about the Holy Spirit, and how He works silently and unnoticeably to vivify the Catholic Church, and to sanctify our souls. He is the unsung hero of our salvation. The Holy Spirit builds, animates and sanctifies the Church. So, as some ancient writers have said, the Holy Spirit is like the soul of the Catholic Church. Besides the Holy Spirit sanctifies the individual soul, first moving it to believe, to embrace the faith, and then, little by little, to grow in Faith, Hope and Love, leading it to bear fruits of holiness. The Holy Spirit is the master of prayer, because He teaches us to pray as we ought (Romans 8:26).
Some Bible texts that we quote in this episode: The Mystery of the Annunciation (Lk 3:22). The Baptism of Jesus (Lk 3:22). The Holy Spirit similar to the force that makes the crop grow in the field (Mark 4:26-33). The wind blows where it wills (John 3:8). At the last Supper (John 14:16-17). How Jesus promised to send the H.S. (Jn 14:26). Baptize in the Name of the Trinity (Mt 28:19). The coming of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost (Acts 1:8). The Holy Spirit teaches us how to pray and aids us in our weakness (Romans 8:26).
Numbers from the Catechism: #731-747
Here is a great prayer to the Holy Spirit:
“Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Thy faithful and enkindle in them the fire of Thy love. Send forth Thy Spirit, and they shall be created. And Thou shalt renew the face of the earth.
Let us pray: O God, who instructed the hearts of Thy faithful by the light of the Holy Spirit, grant us by that same Spirit, to be truly wise, and ever to rejoice in His consolation. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.”
