O Lord Jesus Christ Who, before ascending into heaven did promise 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 Your love.
Grant me
the Spirit
of Wisdom that I may despise the perishable things of this world and aspire
only after the things that are eternal
the Spirit
of Understanding to enlighten my mind with the light of Your divine truth
the Spirit
on Counsel that I may ever choose the surest way of pleasing God and
gaining heaven
the Spirit
of Fortitude that I may bear my cross with You and that I may overcome with
courage all the obstacles that oppose my salvation
the Spirit
of Knowledge that I may know God and know myself and grow perfect in the
science of the Saints
the Spirit
of Piety that I may find the service of God sweet and amiable
and the Spirit
of Fear that I may be filled with a loving reverence towards God and may
dread in any way to displease Him.
Mark me, dear Lord with the sign
of Your true disciples, and animate me in all things with Your Spirit. Amen.
