The Holy Spirit works in us, throughout the day,
during our whole life,
as a witness who tells us who Jesus is.

 
Pope Francis

Like the sunrise that filters through the whole atmosphere,
spreading over the land and sea,
and yet is enjoyed by each, as though it were for him alone,
so the Holy Spirit pours forth his grace in full measure
sufficient for all, and present as though exclusively to everyone.

 
St. Basil the Great, 4th century

The Holy Spirit opens our heart
that we may know Jesus.

 
Pope Francis

The signs accompanying grace are much joy,
peace, love and truth.
But the signs of sin are accompanied by turmoil,
not joy and love toward God.

 
Pseudo-Marcarius, 4th Century

We need the Holy Spirit to perfect and renew us;
for spiritual fire can cleanse us,
and spiritual water can recast us as in a furnace
and make us into new people.

 
Didymus of Alexandria, 4th century

The action of the Holy Spirit
is different in different people,
but the Spirit himself is always the same.

 
St. Cyril of Jerusalem, 4th century

Clearing and purifying the mind
is the task of the Holy Spirit.

 
Diadochus of Photica, 5th century

The effects of the Holy Spirit’s action
are both many and marvelous.

 
St. Cyril of Jerusalem, 4th century
