The Spirit’s Guidance Prayer
Breathe in me, O Holy Spirit, That my thoughts may all be holy.
Purify my mind from worldly distractions, And fill it with Your divine wisdom.
Let every thought reflect Your truth, Every meditation honor Your name.
Act in me, O Holy Spirit, That my work, too, may be holy. Guide my hands in service, Direct my steps in purpose, Make my actions reflect Your love, And my deeds shine with Your grace.
Draw my heart, O Holy Spirit, That I love but what is holy. Shape my desires to match Your will, Turn my affections toward heaven’s treasures, Let my love be pure and selfless, As Yours has always been for me.
Strengthen me, O Holy Spirit, To defend all that is holy. Grant me courage in times of trial, Fortify my spirit against temptation, Help me stand firm in faith, And bold in speaking truth with love.
Guard me, then, O Holy Spirit, That I always may be holy. Be my shield in times of weakness, My comfort in moments of doubt, My guide through paths uncertain, My light in darkness deep.
Fill me with Your presence, Holy Spirit, Until my life overflows with grace. Let Your fruits grow abundantly within me: Love, joy, peace, and patience, Kindness, goodness, faithfulness, Gentleness, and self-control.
Make my life a testament to Your power, My words a witness to Your truth, My heart a vessel of Your love, That in all things and at all times, I may walk in holiness, And bring glory to Your name.
Amen.
