PentaQuest: Promptings for Pentecost 2025 (Day 1: PEACE)

3 June, 2025

Key Verse: “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. I do not give to you as the world gives.” (Jn 14:27) 

Reflection: The Holy Spirit gives Divine Peace. He drives away all fear and anchors our life in hope. When life takes us through harsh moments of trouble, it’s this Divine Peace that helps us to sustain our faith and to radiate joy, even amid hardships. 

Do I realise that it is only in Christ that I can find true peace and joy? 

How can I be ‘an ambassador’ of reconciliation and peace? 

Quote from Early Church Fathers: “When the Holy Spirit is in us, His peace is in us also; and this peace will calm all the storms of the heart.” (St. Cyril of Alexandria) 

Prayer: O Holy Spirit, Spirit of Peace, settle my restless heart and make me a bearer of Your reconciliation and hope, in a troubled world. Amen! 

COME HOLY SPIRIT, FILL MY HEART! 

COME HOLY SPIRIT, LEAD MY LIFE! 

GOD BLESS! LIVE JESUS!
