Daily Devotional

The Holy Spirit is the most reliable friend you will ever have. When in trouble, those you call your friends now will show their true colours, but the Holy Spirit will defend you. When trials come your way, Jesus says: “The Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.” Learn to call on the Holy Spirit by thinking of Him as the air you breathe. You cannot see it, but you can feel it. You don’t think about it, but you know it is there. Just as no one can survive without air, you cannot do without the Holy Spirit.

“Beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is HYPOCRISY. Nothing is covered up that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known. Therefore, whatever you have said in the dark shall be heard in the light, and what you have whispered in private rooms shall be proclaimed upon the housetops.” (Luke 12:1-3)

Who is a Christian? St. Paul answers in today’s first reading: A person blessed with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places; chosen in Christ to be holy and blameless; destined in love to be united to God in the fullness of time. A Christian is different, not like everybody else. A Christian is chosen for holiness, to shine a light – to give the world an example.
