Thought of the Day May 28, 2025 The Gift of Piety
The sixth spiritual gifts of the Holy Spirit is the Gift of Piety. It is the gift of relationship-a relationship of love in response to God's love for us. Through the Gifts of Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Right Judgment and Fortitude, we come to know in a fuller way God's plan for our life. We come to appreciate his great, unconditional love for us. Our hearts desire to respond and the only adequate response is love. But even our response of love is as a result of grace from God. Our love is expressed in worship of the One, True God, who alone is worthy of all praise, adoration, thanksgiving, and blessings. Our love is further expressed in our service of others, as a way of life. This Gift of Piety prepares us for our life after death in the Kingdom of God, eternally worshipping the eternal One with all the angels and saints. We learn this worship here on earth and perfect it in eternity. Thank you, Lord, for the Gift of Piety.
