The Words of Jesus of Nazareth

The Promise of the Spirit

It is the Spirit that has the power to give life.

When the Comforter, the Spirit of truth, whom I will send to you from the Father has come, he will testify of me. He will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I have told you.

V

Abba, Father, Lord God, O why do I look to anyone but You. Why do I ask anyone but You. And why do I expect anything from anyone but You. For I am as anyone else, weak by human being only made strong by my spirit being where through Jesus I am one with You; selfish and prideful until I am emptied of myself at the foot of the Cross where I am cleansed by the blood of Jesus, born again in the Spirit. O that You would help me walk in the spirit always. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Amen.

V

The soul united to God and transformed in him draws from within God a divine breath, much like the most high God himself. And God, abiding in the soul, breathes forth the life of the soul as its exemplar. This I take to be what Paul meant when he said: because you are children of God, God has sent to the Spirit of his Son into your heart’s crying, Abba, Father; this is what takes place in those who have achieved perfection.

— St. John of the Cross

The Pontiff in Winter: Triumph and Conflict in the Reign of John Paul II By John Cornwell Narrated by John Lee – Pope John Paul II is one of the most famous and influential political figures of the world. Now, best-selling author and journalist John Cornwell has written an accessible and provocative portrait of this highly charged figure, focusing primarily on the last five years and the major world events, and scandals within the Church that have impacted the papacy. The result is a thoughtful assessment of John Paul II’s legacy to the Church. In an age when many people see the Catholic Church as an institution in crisis, Cornwell raises the level of debate by posing difficult questions; chief among them is the effectiveness of a system that grants lifetime power to an individual vulnerable to the vicissitudes of aging and illness.
