Sometimes it can be hard to find the words to pray to the Holy Spirit, and yet it is so critically important, especially right now. Below is a prayer that is easy to say every day 🙂
Prayer to the Holy Spirit:
“O Holy Spirit, Beloved of my soul, I adore you. Enlighten me, guide me, strengthen me and console me. Tell me what I ought to do and command me to do it. I promised to submit to everything that You ask of me and to accept all that you allow to happen to me. Just show me what is Your will, O Holy Spirit.”
To be “enlightened” is to see all that is around you through the Holy Spirit’s eyes. To see it how it actually is. Something we can all use, especially right now.
To ask for guidance and strength is simply asking the Holy Spirit to tell us what to do in each situation, and for the strength to do it.
To console us is to ask the Holy Spirit to comfort us in all things. We ask the Holy Spirit to let us know that we are making the choice that God would have us make. And we are also asking the Holy Spirit to comfort us in hard times.
It can be quite a relief to have the Holy Spirit “command” us to do something, anything. I don’t know about you, but half the time I am praying and trying to figure out what God would have me do. To have the Holy Spirit “command me” is a great gift, not to mention a great relief lol.
If we pray the above prayer every day, it WILL help us 🙂
