WORD 2day : The Spirit that convicts

Tuesday, VI week of Easter: 12th May,  2015

Acts 16: 22-34; Jn 16: 5-11


Jesus wishes that his disciples moved on to the next level. He is trying his best to introduce them to the Advocate,  the Divine Counselor!  Today's readings bring out one important aspect of this advocate: the aspect of the Spirit which convicts the individuals,  communities and all those who truly believe.

Receiving the Spirit is not an ordinary task. It is a divine mission that the Lord promised to those who sincerely ask for it. For when the spirit comes... the Spirit would convict the person. What should we do to be saved. ..that is the question that would fill or hearts. What should I do to be acceptable in the eyes of God?
