It popped the song into my head, and the next day, Inwas in a situation, in which I realized that, as a Christian, I have to act with love, and fight the (already won by Him!) battle/war for Jesus. So instead of letting my anger go on and turning to pride and selfishness (a hallmark of my teenage years and 20s), I turned to love and forgiveness.

The Lord working through you, Mary! Putting one of my favourite songs in my head, so that I could hear it and act accordingly. A message from the Holy Spirit, indeed!

Sunday was Pentecost… and that was one of the hymns we sang during Communion. It started right as I came back to my pew after receiving the Lord, just in time for me to be able to sing it! At first, I could only meagerly sing it, due to the tears in my eyes and running down my face. I was just so grateful and felt so blessed. A true gift from the Holy Spirit, who was letting me know that I chose the right path when inspired by the song.

Once again, thank you, Mary, for letting the Lord use you as an instrument for the messages of the Holy Spirit to come through!

I ask your prayers for Ireland for Prolife as the government is trying to legalise for abortion on demand.
