Prayer for the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit
O lord Jesus Christ, before ascending into heave, you promised to send the Holy Spirit to finish your work in the souls of your apostles and disciples. Deign to grant the same Holy Spirit to me, that he may perfect in my soul the work of your grace and love.
Grant me the Spirit of Wisdom, that I may not be attached to the perishable things of this world but aspire only after the things that are eternal.
Grant me the Spirit of Understanding, that my mind may be enlightened with the light of your divine truth.
Grant me the Spirit of Counsel, that I may ever choose the surest way of pleasing God and gaining heaven.
Grant me the Spirit of Fortitude, that I may bear my cross with you, and courageously overcome all things opposed to my salvation.
Grant me the Spirit of Knowledge, that I may know God and know myself, and grow perfect in the science of the saints.
Grant me the Spirit of Piety, that I will find the service of God sweet and amiable.
Grant me the Spirit of Fear of the Lord, that I may be filled with a loving reverence toward God and have the strength to avoid anything that will lead me to displease Him.
Mark me, dear Sweet Jesus, with the sign of your true disciples and animate me in all things with Your Spirit. Amen.
Closing prayer
Divine Spirit, renew your wonders in this our age as in a new Pentecost. Grant that your Church, praying perseveringly and insistently, with one heart and mind, together with Mary the Mother of Jesus, and guided by blessed Peter, may increase the reign of the Divine Savior, a reign of truth and Justice, a reign of love and peace. Amen.
