O Holy Spirit
April 2
Prayer to the Holy Spirit
O Holy Sprit, Soul of my soul I adore Thee.
Enlighten, guide, strengthen and console me.
Tell me what I ought to do, then command me to do it.
I promise to be submissive to all that Thou asks of me,
and to accept all that Thou permittest to happen to me,
only show me what is Thy will. Amen.
-Joseph Cardinal Mercier

Most glorious Lord of life that on this day
Didst make Thy triumph over death and sin,
And having harrowed hell didst bring away
Captivity thence captive us to win;

I am not moved to love Thee, O my Lord,
By any longing for Thy Promised Land;
Nor by the fear of hell am I unmanned
To cease from my transgressing deed or word.

O Mother dear, didst thou but hear
My plaint of desolation,
Thy tender heart would burst apart
With grief of separation!

Prone in Gethsemene upon His face,
His eyelids closed, — lay Christ of all our world,
Show kindness
April 13
“Each day look for every possible opportunity to do a kindness for those you do not like. After examining yourself on this matter every morning, decide what you are going to do, and do it faithfully with kindness and humility.”
St. John Baptist De La Salle
Let nothing disturb you
April 11
“Let nothing disturb you,
Nothing frighten you,
All things are passing,
God never changes.
Patience overcomes all things.
He who possesses God
Lacks nothing.
God alone is sufficient.”
-St. Teresa of Avila
We shall steer safely through every storm

“We shall steer safely through every storm, so long as our heart is right, our intention fervent, our courage steadfast, and our trust fixed on God. If at times we are somewhat stunned by the tempest, never fear. Let us take breath, and go afresh.
-St. Francis de Sales
