In the same way the Spirit also comes to help us, weak as we are. For we do not know how we ought to pray; the Spirit himself pleads with God for us in groans that words cannot express.
Romans 8:26 GNBDK
Reflection:
In our family of faith, there are who don't even understand the very concept of praying in the spirit. For a while now the laity has been shy from this form of prayer. But St. Paul tells us that there is power in praying in Spirit, for when we do so; the words we pray come from God to our spirit and our spirit expresses those words as pray to God. It may sound overwhelming, but this is the truth. And when we pray in the spirit, we open ourselves to the will of God in our lives.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to surrender wholeheartedly to him in prayer as you take time alone to pray just like Jesus did. As you go in to the inner room in total submission may his Holy Spirit bless you with the gift of praying in the Spirit. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
