Come, Holy Spirit!

Come fill our hearts: with your love, peace, reassurance.

Come fill our minds: with your wisdom, perspective, creative spark.

Come fill our bodies: with your healing, energy and grace.

Come, Holy Spirit!

Go, Holy Spirit!

Go as Breath: to those choked with fear, to those paralyzed with doubt, to those who are breath-less altogether.

Go as Fire: to those cold of heart, to those in cluttered confines, to those shivering in bleakness.

Go as Freedom: to those locked in set patterns, to those fettered by old expectations, to those bounds by dread and despair.

Go, Holy Spirit!

Come and go as You will, Holy Spirit, and in Your coming and going, bend me to your rhythms, so that I come home to my places of belonging, and go to my places of doing and being with energy, intelligence, imagination and Love. Amen.

“Now God is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of God is, there is freedom.” 2 Corinthians 3: 17

Jesus said, “…if I do not go…the Spirit will not come.” John 16: 4
