Feast of St Stephen
It is reassuring that we have the Spirit of our Father right at our side.
Matthew 10:17-22
Can you recall an occasion when someone told you not to worry…that you can do it…that everything would be alright? What happened? A person of faith would say to call on the Holy Spirit to help. I always embrace that call because of its effectiveness. Come Holy Spirit, come. It is reassuring that we have the Spirit of our Father right at our side speaking in us.
I have found myself in situations where I was at a loss for words and it was the promptings of The Holy Spirit that facilitated as I couldn’t do it of myself. It could be in defending the Faith, or giving a presentation, or doing a Reflection. What to say was really given me when the time came so I thank God. Admittedly, when I relied on my own strength it didn’t work out just right. I must rely on the promptings of the Spirit at all times. Thank you, Father for your Son giving us the Holy Spirit and for that life.
