Evangelical Disciple

Homily from the Solemnity of Pentecost. Jesus tells us we have to prove our love for him by following his commands, which is difficult. He promises to send an Advocate, the Holy Spirit, to assist us. We need the Holy Spirit and the good news is that we've already received this Spirit in our Baptism. As fallen sinners, we also need a renewal of those graces received at Baptism, so we must ask for this renewal.
