The Seven Gifts



The gift of Wisdom is the Holy Spirit coming into you, a spiritual awakening and the will to know right from wrong

The gift of Understanding is seeking the Holy Spirit to guide you and this is through prayer

The gift of Counsel is looking to a man of God our priests to aid you in your journey and interpreting and answering your questions

The gift of Fortitude is asking the Holy Spirit to strengthening you through prayer to combat any temptations you have

The gift of Knowledge is the reading of the Holy Bible and asking the Holy Spirit to help you understand it

The gift of Piety is loving the Lord so much that you do whatever he asks and obey him and this is an example of Abraham sacrificing his only son

The gift of Fear of the Lord is sinning and offending God when we don’t walk his path, like hurting our parents when you know you have done something wrong against their teaching.
