Friends, this is the great feast of Pentecost, the feast of the Holy Spirit. In the First Reading, the Spirit manifests himself as a strong driving wind, and while you can’t see the wind directly, you can see its effects. The text I want to reflect on today is not in the readings but is one of my favorites: Galatians 5:22–26, when St. Paul talks about “the fruit of the Spirit.” And it’s precisely to this same point: What are the signs that the Holy Spirit is operative in us?

Mass Readings:
Reading 1 — Genesis 11:1-9
Psalm — Psalm 104:1-2, 24, 35, 27-28, 29, 30
Reading 2 — Romans 8:22-27
Gospel — John 7:37-39
