The living water

“[The Holy Spirit] is the living water, but the water can continue to give life only if the plant is well cared for and pruned. Quench your thirst from the fountain of love, the Spirit, and take care, with sensitivity and respect, of the whole ecclesial body, especially the most fragile parts, so that all may grow together, harmonious and fruitful.” — Pope Francis

Reflection: How do you care for yourself physically and spiritually? Is there a habit or activity that is causing you pain or drawing you away from the life God wants for you? When have you experienced the care of the Holy Spirit through the Church? How are you helping to care for your local parish, the nearest expression of the whole Church?
