 Prayer St. John Paul II's Father Taught Him

Holy Spirit, I ask you for the gift of Wisdom to better know You and Your divine perfections,

for the gift of Counsel that I may live according to the principles of this faith,

for the gift of Knowledge that I may look for counsel in You and that I may always find it in You, 

for the gift of Fortitude that no fear or earthly preoccupations would ever separate me from You,

for the gift of Piety that I may always serve Your Majesty with a filial love,

for the gift of the Fear of the Lord that I may dread sin, which offends You, O my God.
