1:08Now PlayingPope Leo XVI’s prayer intention for July 2025 highlights the importance of developing the ability of making wise decisions guided by the Holy Spirit in an ever more complex world.
The Pope Video, produced by the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network with the collaboration of the Diocese of Brooklyn, invites us to dedicate a moment of prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to grant us the grace of hearing his voice.
Formation in the art of discernment is essential. This includes prayer, personal reflection, Scripture study and spiritual accompaniment. This month, we ask for the grace of discernment so as to face challenges from the perspective of faith and confidence in the Lord, and to live the Gospel more authentically in today’s world.
"Let us pray that we might again learn how to discern, to know how to choose paths of life and reject everything that leads us away from Christ and the Gospel." (Leo XIV)

Let us pray that we might again learn how to discern, to know how to choose paths of life and reject everything that leads us away from Christ and the Gospel.
(Leo XIV)
Holy Spirit, you, light of our understanding,
gentle breath that guides our decisions,
grant me the grace to listen attentively to your voice
and to discern the hidden paths of my heart,
so that I may grasp what truly matters to you,
and free my heart from its troubles.
I ask you for the grace to learn how to pause,
to become aware of the way I act,
of the feelings that dwell within me,
and of the thoughts that overwhelm me
which, so often, I fail to notice.
I long for my choices
to lead me to the joy of the Gospel.
Even if I must go through moments of doubt and fatigue,
even if I must struggle, reflect, search, and begin again…
Because, at the end of the journey,
your consolation is the fruit of the right decision.
Grant me a deeper understanding of what moves me,
so that I may reject what draws me away from Christ,
and love him and serve him more fully.
Amen.
