To the Holy Spirit, God of Love

To the Holy Spirit, God of Love

Prayer by Fr. Ernest Manise, CSSR

O Spirit! O Love! O Truth who are my God! Come and make a new creation in my soul; come, it opens itself to You without reserve; come, for it is poor, destitute, abandoned. Bring it light and peace; pour love into it like living water that springs to eternal life. I surrender myself entirely to Your guidance, O Holy Spirit. Too often, alas, I have resisted You or not wanted to listen to Your voice; but from now on I will obey You faithfully. My heart is Your domain, act in it as You please; rise up like the aquilon to strike down all my passions and overturn my plans that do not conform to Your good pleasure; come like a gentle and refreshing wind to console my soul. I surrender myself to Your guidance with a confidence that will bring me happiness and salvation. Yes, it is for You to command, and I am too happy to obey.

Preparatory Prayer

O Jesus! We are going to walk with You on the road to Calvary which was so painful for You. Make us understand the greatness of Your sufferings, touch our hearts with tender compassion at the sight of Your torments, in order to increase in us the regret of our faults and the love we wish to have for You.
Deign to apply to all of us the infinite merits of Your Passion, and in memory of Your sorrows, show mercy to the souls in Purgatory, especially to those who are most abandoned.
O Divine Mary, who first taught us to make the Way of the Cross, obtain for us the grace to follow Jesus with the sentiments Your Heart was filled with as You accompanied Him on the road to Calvary. Grant that we may weep with You, and that we may love Your divine Son as You do. We ask this in the name of His adorable Heart. Amen.
