Introduction: Praying to the Holy Spirit
12-5-06In prayer we simply become more aware of the presence of the Holy Spirit. He is the one who prays for us and with us. It is His prayer which is all powerful. We believe that all prayer is already answered because the Answer, the Holy Spirit, has already been given. The answer to our prayer is always a person, not a thing. The more we grow in the awareness of His presence within us, the more we grow in prayer.
The least important part of prayer is what we pray to God. The most important part of prayer is what He says to us. In this sense, all authentic healing prayer is contemplative rather than active. For this reason, we have included both talking prayer and listening prayer in this section.
We hope that these prayers help you grow in the awareness of God's unconditional love. If the words we have written get in the way of the Holy Spirit, forget the words and listen to him.
Fr. Peter McCall, OFM Cap.
