This Sunday's Reflection
SOLEMNITY OF PENTECOST
“The Spirit too comes to the aid of our weakness,” Saint Paul writes to the Romans, but he could be writing this to us today. The Holy Spirit inspires us to live out the gospel, teaches us to better understand God’s will, emboldens us to overcome difficulties, strengthens us on our mis-sion, and urges us to turn to the Lord through prayer. The Holy Spirit has drawn us here today. On this eve of Pentecost, we pray that the Holy Spirit continues to enlighten and enliven us on our life’s journey.
“El Espíritu nos ayuda en nuestra debilidad”, le escribe san Pablo a los romanos; pero, bien podría escribirnos eso mismo a nosotros hoy. El Espíritu Santo nos inspira a vivir conforme al Evangelio, nos enseña a comprender mejor la voluntad de Dios, nos da la valentía para supercar las dificultades, nos fortalece en nuestra misión y nos insta a acudir al Señor mediante la oración. El Espíritu Santo nos ha convocado aquí hoy. En esta víspera de Pentecostés, oramos para que el Espíritu Santo continúe iluminándonos y alentándonos en el peregrinar de nuestra vida.
