At the recommendation of the Bishop, I shall be posting the following novena to the Holy Spirit daily until the great feast of Pentecost in just over a week’s time. It was written specifically for PrayMoreNovenas.com and it is based on the Fruits of the Holy Spirit and a desire for sainthood.
Day IV: Patience
+ In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Let us bow down in humility at the power and grandeur of the Holy Spirit. Let us worship the Holy Trinity and give glory today to the Paraclete, our Advocate.
O Holy Spirit, by Your power, Christ was raised from the dead to save us all. By Your grace, miracles are performed in Jesus’ Name. By Your love, we are protected from evil. And so, we ask with humility and a beggar’s heart for Your gift of Patience within us.
O Holy Spirit, You give lavishly to those who ask. Please give us the patience of the Saints who are now with You in heaven. Help us to endure everything with an eternal patience that is only possible with Your help.
Holy Spirit we ask for the grace of perseverance in the Holy Faith until the end. Amen.
Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of Your love. Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created. And You shall renew the face of the earth. O, God, Who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations, through Christ Our Lord, Amen.
+ In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
