Day 9 - The Spirit of Evangelism ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would help us respond to God’s prompting and become faithful witnesses to our Five.

Lord,
grant that I may always allow myself to be guided by You,
always follow Your plans, and perfectly accomplish Your Holy Will.
Help me respond to the slightest prompting of Your Grace,
so that I may be Your trustworthy instrument for Your honour.
May Your Will be done in time and in eternity by me, in me, and through me.

Amen 🙏

We beseech thee, Master, to be our helper and protector.
Save the afflicted among us; have mercy on the lowly; raise up the fallen; appear to the needy; heal the ungodly; restore the wanderers of Thy people; feed the hungry; ransom our prisoners; raise up the sick; comfort the faint-hearted.

Amen 🙏

[Clement of Rome, 1st Century]

Day 7 - The Spirit of Leadership ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would lead us closer to God and help us carry our Five loved ones with faith.

My life flows on in endless song,
above earth’s lamentation.
I catch the sweet, though far-off hymn that hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife,
I hear that music ringing.
It finds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?

Amen 🙏

[Attributed to Pauline T]

Day 6 - The Spirit and the Still Small Voice ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would meet our Five in the stillness and help them hear the gentle whisper of God.

When the heart is hard and parched up,
come upon me with a shower of mercy.
When grace is lost from life,
come with a burst of song.
When tumultuous work raises its din on all sides shutting me out from beyond,
come to me, my lord of silence, with Thy peace and rest.
When my beggarly heart sits crouched, shut up in a corner, break open the door, my king, and come with the ceremony of a king.
When desire blinds the mind with delusion and dust, O Thou Holy One, Thou Wakeful, come with Thy light and Thy thunder.

Amen 🙏

[Rabindranath Tagore - 1861 –1941]

Jesus Christ our Lord,
Amen 🙏

[Thomas Cranmer]

Day 3 - The Spirit of Grace ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would help us reflect God’s grace and love to our Five.

O Lord,
in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son our God,

Amen 🙏

[6th century Celtic prayer]

Day 2 - The Spirit Broods over Creation ✨

Today, let us pray that the Holy Spirit would move over the lives of our Five, bringing light and life where they need it most.

Eternal God, eternal Trinity,
You are a mystery as deep as the sea; the more I search, the more I find, and the more I find the more I search for You. But I can never be satisfied; what I receive will ever leave me desiring more. When You fill my soul, I have an ever-greater hunger, and I grow more famished for Your light. I desire above all to see You, the true light, as You really are.

Amen 🙏

[St Catherine of Siena 1347-80]
