May 15, 2024 Reflection – Pray to the Holy Spirit!
Pray to the Holy Spirit! May 15, 2024 St. Isidore Dear Family of Mary! Today we have three messages from Our Lady in which she called us to welcome the Holy Spirit into our hearts during prayer. I believe we should enter into our personal prayer with the expectation that the Holy Spirit will come to us and inspire us every time we pray!! Prayer is not just a time in which we talk to God (or could we say, talk at God)!! It is a time in which we humbly enter into a conversation with the Lord. And it is the Holy Spirit who makes that conversation possible!! If we are not hearing from the Lord in prayer, it is because the ears of our heart are closed!! We need to open our hearts to God especially during our personal prayer! We need to welcome the Holy Spirit and respond to His promptings with joy! Our Lady said to us: Advent 1983 “Begin by calling on the Holy Spirit each day. The most important thing is to pray to the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit descends on earth, then everything becomes clear and everything is transformed.” May 25, 2003 “Dear children! Also today I call you to prayer. Renew your personal prayer, and in a special way pray to the Holy Spirit to help you pray with the heart. I intercede for all of you, little children, and call all of you to conversion. If you convert, all those around you will also be renewed and prayer will be a joy for them. Thank you for having responded to my call.” April 25, 2015 “Dear children! I am with you also today to lead you to salvation. Your soul is restless because your spirit is weak and tired from all worldly things. You, little children, pray to the Holy Spirit that He may transform you and fill you with His strength of faith and hope, so that you may be firm in this battle against evil. I am with you and intercede for you before my Son Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call…” The Holy Spirit is not an option, He is the Third Person of the Trinity! We need Him in our lives constantly, leading us, guiding us, strengthening us, teaching us, and protecting us! As we approach Pentecost, let’s open our hearts to the presence of the Holy Spirit, and expect miracles!! In Jesus, Mary and Joseph! Cathy Nolan (c) Mary TV 2024
