St. Charles Borromeo

O Holy Spirit, Saint Charles served as a bishop in a diocese that was plagued by superstitions and other faulty religious practices, but he resolved the problems by issuing wise rulings, instituting them with kindness, and setting an example through his own holy life. He accomplished the changes despite a severe speech impediment. He learned that "we are all weak, but if we want help, the Lord God has given us the means to find it easily." I ask him to pray for the shortcomings and impediments in my life, so that they will not interfere with the work You, dear Lord, have called me to do. Saint Charles, pray for me. Amen.
