As the Spirit hovered over the waters of creation

and your Word was spoken

“Let there be Light”

and the Eternal Word breathed Life into Creation.

May I be aware of this life breath within me.

Create me anew by the power of your Holy Spirit.

 

 

As the Spirit hovered over the waters

of Mary’s Womb

and your Word was spoken

“Let there be Light”

and the Eternal Word became

the Light of Creation.

Be this Light within me.

Breathe your Holy Spirit over me.

 

 

As the Spirit hovered over the waters of Galilee

and your Word was spoken,

“Let there be Peace”

and the Eternal Word calmed

the Winds and the Sea.

Show your dominion over me.

Calm the stormy waters of my soul.

 

As the Spirit hovered over

the waters from your Side

and your Word was spoken

“Not my will, but yours be done”

and the Eternal Word breathed Life into Creation.

Transform me by the Power

of your Paschal Mystery.

Baptize me in the water and blood pouring forth

from your Most Sacred Heart.

 

 

As the Spirit hovered over

the disciples on Pentecost

and your Word was spoken

“Do not be afraid”

and the Eternal Word breathed Life into Creation.

Infuse us with the Fire of Your Holy Love.

May we witness to Your Divine Life

living within us.
