Unbroken Succession Through the Spirit
John 16:12-15
Jesus Christ revealed the truth. The Holy
Spirit helped the Apostles understand.
The Apostles were lost until Pentecost.
The Paraclete provides love to the Church.
The three divine Persons are equal.
Remember Saint Patrick and the shamrock.
Father Hesburgh was in many meetings.
Before each he prayed, “Come Holy Spirit.”
When we ask for the Spirit, He is there.
He is even there when we do not ask.
Persecutions and trials don’t dishearten.
Let’s turn difficulties to good purpose.
Do you know three people who are a cross
Between the Trinity and the three stooges?
Patrick McCaskey
