New Prayer for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit based on the prayer of Karol Wojtyla Sr., the teachings of St. John Paul II and Pope Francis

 


A new prayer for the gifts of the Holy Spirit based on the:

  • the prayer taught by Karol Wojtyla, Sr,  the father of St. John Paul II, which the latter called "a major spiritual lesson, longer lasting and more powerful than anything I got from my reading or the courses I took later on,” one of the factors then that helped him become John Paul the Great
  • the insights of St. John Paul himself
  • the latest theology on the Holy Spirit taught by Pope Francis
  • the teachings of St. Thomas Aquinas

Holy Spirit, my Love and my Friend, I ask for 
  • the gift of Wisdom to see Jesus, the world and myself with God’s eyes; 
  • the gift of Understanding to go deep into the boundless love of Jesus, the center of everything; 
  • the gift of Knowledge to look at all things as Jesus’ beautiful gift; 
  • the gift of Counsel to choose the best way to love Jesus and everyone; 
  • the gift of Piety to be one with the Son of God in serving the Father and his family with trusting prayer and mercy; 
  • the gift of Fortitude to be brave and persevering in doing all my duties with the greatest love; 
  • the gift of Fear of the Lord to run away from selfishness and sin, the only cause of Jesus’ agony. Amen.
