The Guidance of the Holy Spirit

    On the 6th Sunday of Easter Year C, we reflect on how the Holy Spirit, promised by Jesus in the Gospel, guides the Church. In the first reading, we see the apostles making important decisions with the help of the Holy Spirit. This guidance was crucial in resolving issues and uniting the early Church. The Holy Spirit provided clarity and direction, helping the apostles stay true to Jesus' teachings.

    The role of the Holy Spirit didn't end with the apostles. The Holy Spirit continues to guide the Church, offering wisdom and support to leaders and believers alike. This presence helps the Church remain faithful to the mission of Christ, even in challenging times. The decisions made by the Church are influenced by the Holy Spirit, ensuring they align with God's will.

    As we celebrate the 6th Sunday of Easter Year C, we are reminded to seek the Holy Spirit's guidance in our own lives. By opening our hearts to the Holy Spirit, we can find the strength and wisdom needed to make good decisions. Let us trust in the Holy Spirit to lead us, just as it led the apostles, and continue to guide the Church in truth and unity.
