We need to put our faith into action by giving the Holy Spirit more room to work. When we get out of ourselves and serve other people, we can draw on the spirit's grace and power. We can ask the Spirit to release his gifts in us so that we can minister His love to people and not just our good intentions.
What good deed is the Spirit inspiring you to do? Perhaps to visit the sick, elderly, or imprisoned. Maybe he is asking you to open your own home inhospitality. He may be leading you to volunteer at your parish, or at a nearby soup kitchen. Or perhaps you know someone who is depressed and lonely, and would deeply apreciate someone to talk to. If you are not sure how to serve, just pray about it - the Spirit will surely lead you to those who need just what you have to give.
"Holy Spirit, fill me anew with your presence. Stir into flame your power within me, that I may be transformed by the fire of your love" AMEN. (Taken from The word among us)

How to pray
Our Father in heaven, Holy be your name, Your Kingdom come, your will be done on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Do not bring us to the test, but deliver us from evil, AMEN.
A daily prayer
I happend to say some prayer on a daily and regular basis and after having been as such for quit sometime now, I feel so good after each session of prayer. More confidence and no worry at all. Let me share with you some prayer: "Lord Jesus, I give you my wounds, my sorrows, and my broken dreams. I count these as nothing compared to your awesome and unchanging love!" Amen.
Prayer a round of Rosary Devotion daily and you will feel even better. May God bless you all.
