Holy Spirit, you are our refuge,
We want to salute your holy name.
We want to take you as our model,
we want to try to copy from you,
we expect from you.
Teach us to speak,
Teach us your gentleness,
Show us your ways.
In the face of so many situations, we have not been able to keep our calm and our patience.
We have destroyed everything, we have crushed everything, we have not known how to listen and we have sometimes let our blessings go, we have let the enemy rob us.
By our words, the devil has got us,
With our tongues we have subtly made alliances.
With our mouths we have broken destinies.
We have failed to use discernment, we have failed to use wisdom in our responses.
Our words have been bombs for our neighbour, we have opened wounds that have not been healed by our words.
We must be careful with our words and be sowers of peace.
It is up to us to put calm and gentleness in our words.
Let us decide with the help of the Lord to be calm even with people who hurt us, who persecute us and who are hard on us.
Colossians, 4:6 – Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to respond to each person.
Pray for the ability to have appropriate words.
This passage confronts us with our responsibilities and encourages us to do and imitate the Lord.
Let us accompany our words with grace and season them with salt.
Let us learn to respond to others.
Salt is an ingredient that gives flavour, otherwise the meal has no taste, it is bland.
Seasoning our words with salt means choosing good words, speaking in a way that is pleasing to the listener.
Let us resolve not to speak to destroy, but with our words to build, to soothe, to encourage, to strengthenā¦.
This is also how we know that wisdom is taking place in our lives.
Good morning to all
Good day to you
