No problem, do not feel bad, I was on retreat this past weekend, started the novena Friday while at the retreat house. Beautiful weather weekend. Will at least pray the devotional prayers. Taking a look around the Holy Spirit section. So many beautiful pictures as well as prayers.
Light immortal! Light Divine!
Visit Thou these hearts of Thine,
And our inmost being fill.The Gift of Knowledge
The gift of Knowledge enables the soul to evaluate created things at their true worth-----in their relation to God. Knowledge unmasks the pretense of creatures, reveals their emptiness, and points out their only true purpose as instruments in the service of God. It shows us the loving care of God even in adversity, and directs us to glorify Him in every circumstance of life. Guided by its light, we put first things first, and prize the friendship of God beyond all else. "Knowledge is a fountain of life to him that possesseth it."
Prayer
Come, O Blessed Spirit of Knowledge, and grant that I may perceive the will of the Father; show me the nothingness of earthly things, that I may realize their vanity and use them only for Thy glory and my own salvation, looking ever beyond them to Thee, and Thy eternal rewards. Amen.
Our Father and Hail Mary ONCE.
Glory be to the Father SEVEN TIMES.
Act of Oblation, Prayer for the Seven Gifts.
