Spirit of God, Thank You


Spirit of God,
Thank you for granting our daughter and all confirmands


The Gift of Wisdom
so that she may see the world through Your eyes, 
exercising the virtue of charity;



The Gift of Understanding
that she may understand more clearly 
the mysteries of faith;


The Gift of Counsel
that she may make difficult decisions with prudence
and avoid the deceits of the devil


The Gift of Fortitude
that she may have the strength and courage
to live in the faith despite difficulties and disappointments;


The Gift of Knowledge
that she may discover Your will in all things;


The Gift of Piety
to be able to express her special love 
and commitment to You always;



And the Gift of Fear of the Lord
- the right kind of fear - 
that fills her with dread of sin 
 and causes her pause often 
to wonder and revere your Love.

Amen.
