Word for Friday April 12.

“In those days: A Pharisee in the council named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, held in honor by all the people, stood up and ordered the apostles to be put outside for a while. And he said to them, “Men of Israel, take care what you do with these men . . . keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this undertaking is of men, it will fail; but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You might even be found opposing God!” Acts 5:34. 38-39. Pope Francis said,

“Let us be guided by the Holy Spirit. Allow him to speak to our hearts, and he will tell us this: God is Love.” Let us pray, Holy Spirit, Gamaliel brought sanity in the council; he invited reflection and correct analysis of the situation at hand. Spirit of God guide us in all our reflections and choice of a path or way forward; may it always be under Yourinspiration. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry
