An Act of Consecration to the Holy Spirit
On
my knees before the great multitude of heavenly witnesses, I offer
myself, soul and body to You, Eternal Spirit of God. I adore the
brightness of Your purity, the unerring keenness of Your justice, and
the might of Your love. You are the Strength and Light of my soul. In
You I live and move and am. I desire never to grieve You by
unfaithfulness to grace and I pray with all my heart to be kept from the
smallest sin against You. Mercifully guard my every thought and grant
that I may always watch for Your light and listen to Your voice and
follow Your gracious inspirations. I cling to You and give myself to You
and ask You, by Your compassion, to watch over me in my weakness.
Holding the pierced Feet of Jesus and looking at His Five Wounds and
trusting in His Precious Blood
and adoring His opened Side and stricken Heart, I implore You, Adorable
Spirit, Helper of my infirmity, so to keep me in Your grace that I may
never sin against You. Give me grace, O Holy Spirit, Spirit of the Father and the Son, to say to You always and everywhere, "Speak, Lord, for Your servant heareth." Amen.
