JOURNEY INTO FAITH continues with ‘Life in the Spirit seminars. This gives a chance to experience God and the Holy Spirit in our Lives. Each of us has a relationship with God. We know who he is and what he can do... but have we actually felt Him in our lives? We were all given gifts by the Holy Spirit in Baptism and Confirmation, but do we use these gifts to improve our lives and the lives of our family, church and community?
Tues 29th April - Receiving God’s Gift Presented by Pat Brown
Living the new life God has begun in us through the Sacraments of Initiation involves falling in love with Jesus. Just as Jesus abandoned Himself to the Father and the Spirit with complete trust, so must we. Following Jesus involves turning toward God and away from all those things that block our relationship with God. Jesus must be our only Lord. God gives us the Sacrament of Reconciliation to help us return to God.
As we turn to God and surrender our lives, then the Spirit fills us with new life. There is a new fire that burns within our hearts, and a river of life in our souls that constantly refreshes and sustains us. Mary is an example of surrender to God. Our understanding of receiving the Spirit is based in the events of Easter and Pentecost, as well as a dynamic understanding of the Sacraments of Initiation, especially Confirmation. In this way, we receive the fullness of the Spirit along with the seven gifts of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fear of the Lord, fortitude, knowledge and piety.
