Inspiration of the Holy Spirit - From the Sacred Heart of Jesus
Gospels explained by Jesus - Gospel messages, gospels explanation - Pentecost Sunday The Holy Spirit is the fire of Love that comes out of my Father and Me. It enters the heart of those who open themselves to receive our blessings with sincerity. The Holy Spirit makes Himself at home in the hearts of believers who keep God{s commandments.

The Holy Spirit descended upon me the day of my Baptism. I promised that I would not leave you orphans and that I would send the Holy Spirit as the Helper who would teach you everything you should know about the Kingdom of Heaven. He descended to the Apostles the day of Pentecost in the shape of tongues of fire; He enlightened them with wisdom, inflamed them with love for my Word and gave them courage to proclaim it.

Now, since Pentecost, The Holy Spirit is given to those who believe in Me and are baptised in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Love is a refining fire, it purifies and gives wisdom; it comforts the soul and strengthens the faith of those who acknowledge it. It is a live flame that sits in the heart and must be fanned by faith and good works.

The Holy Spirit enkindles that fire of Love in every heart. He becomes the teacher and the light that guides the soul in the way of holiness. He sanctifies with pure desires for God and His Divine Will.

Most people in the world reject the Holy Spirit because their hearts are set on the things of the world. They have allowed materialism to take possession of their souls and they have no room for holiness.

Those who accept the holy gifts of God must be aware of the tricks of the enemy who tries to deceive them so that they succumb to the spirit of the world. Once they reject the Holy Spirit they become an easy prey to the devil and his kingdom of darkness.

Open your hearts daily with desire for the Holy Spirit. Let the purifying fire of my love increase your faith, hope and charity.
