If you then, who are evil, know how to give your children what is good, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!
Lk.11:13
Jesus encourages us to be persistent in prayer, especially in our petitioning for an infilling of the Holy Spirit. God the Father is aching to give us this greatest of gifts, the intimate friendship of the Holy Spirit.
This is the pivotal prayer of the Alpha Course Away Day, the most ancient prayer of the Church. Come Holy Spirit. It can be my prayer today.
Holy Spirit, come. Fill the lives of the faithful and renew the face of the earth... and Lord, start with me.
Saint Pope John 23rd, please pray for me.
