I am espoused to Him whom the angels serve.
Sun and moon stand in wonder at His beauty.

Pentecost Thursday
All merciful Father, through your only-begotten Son born of the Virgin by the power of the Holy Spirit, send down upon us, for whom he died, the Spirit of seven-fold grace: WISDOM to enlighten us, UNDERSTANDING to deepen our own, PRUDENCE to enable us to follow Christ, STRENGTH to resist every evil, KNOWLEDGE to choose what is good, PIETY to make us resemble Christ, and FEAR to live without fear in your presence. Amen.
