Do we have control over our feelings, or do they have inordinate power over us? As Victor Frankl once wrote, in a paraphrase: “Between stimulus and response, we have the freedom to choose.”
This sabbatical reflection revolves around the Third Person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit. The main theme is that God empowers us through His Spirit. He calls us to a particular work, and in the process, we receive an abundance of grace. The Spirit’s fruitfulness is desirably attractive. He gives us so much life, energy, and vitality. In this reflection, I share several stories where I saw the Spirit work. Galatians 5 speaks to this theme, one of my favourite passages from CCO’s second level faith study titled Source.
