The Daffodil Principle and the Daffodil Prayer

The “Daffodil Principle” really touched my heart. 
Prayer for   Tuesday, March 4, 2008.  (4th week of lent)  
    May the Spirit of the Living God, the Lord and giver of Life, pour His sweet anointing into the cup of your heart, fill us to overflowing with the oil of joy as we share at the Eucharistic Table of the Lord.  When we have had our fill, may we follow God’s lead to the place which He has chosen for us, the one with our name inscribed in GOLD.  Once we have taken our place, I pray that the Holy Spirit will unwrap His gifts deep within us so that we may give GLORY to God the Father as we enter more deeply into the ongoing celebration of the Incarnation of His dearly Beloved Son.  From all eternity, our Father God has longed to be with to be with us, his beloved children in whom He delights. There are a total of seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit:                         Wisdom…Understanding…
Counsel… Knowledge…Piety…Fear of the Lord… Fortitude (or courage)            
           In the silence of our hearts, we may even hear God the Father whispering how He delights in us as he shares the desires of His heart which is to bring us into the fullness of His Blessing .
Fruits of the Holy Spirit:       Charity           Joy        Peace      Patience          Benignity    Goodness   Long-suffering     Mildness         Faith      Modesty      Continency     Chastity
