Mostly, for your current gear, worry about INTELLECT. Never compare your Intellect with your Spirit. Intellect is a primary stat and is your number one throughput stat. Secondary are Spirit, Haste, Critical, Mastery. If you are having issues with keeping the tank up, reforge Haste and Critical into Mastery, since
Mastery
is your number one Secondary throughput stat. Some people prefer to get 12.5% Haste, since that will grant an additional tick of
Renew
, but I rather just stack Mastery secondarily. If you are having more mana issues, reforge Crit and Haste into Spirit. For you, I would look for 2 different types of gear to reforge.
Spirit & Haste/Crit
Reforge Haste/Crit -> Mastery
Mastery & Haste/Crit
Reforge Haste/Crit -> Spirit
During the second one I mentioned, you might want to choose the Haste to reforge into Spirit. If you are having mana issues and but can't afford to lose throughput, then more Haste will just OOM you faster, but Crit can increase your throughput still without a hurt to your mana pool as much.

I mean i might have to argue a little with drama officer. I read a guide for monk healing on this site in fact that said treat spirit as more important than intellect until you are comfortable with mana in fights. The main argument is, you cant heal if you have no mana. So in the lower gear tiers i would certainly prioritise spirit gems and enchants over intellect IF you are having mana issues. If you are not having mana problems then go for that int, and after that like drama said mastery.
Also make use of your cooldowns. Hymn of hope, and shadowfiend are so awesome and is in a raid will make other healers /love you (obviously just the hymn of hope not necessarily shadowfiend). The other thing too is know your fights and use divine hymn. I macro divine hymn with an on use spell power trinket and then use it in pretty much every raid fight, sometimes twice, and occasionally in dungeons. Seriously though, this spell doesnt take much mana and for the time its channelling you can literally take your hands of the keyboard and watch the HPS flow in.
Hope this helps!

Consano if I were you, looking at your gear, just stack the hell out of Intellect first and foremost. Pull out those blue spirit gems and put in purple Int/Spirits.
If you're having mana trouble on fights you need to ask yourself if you're using your CD's effectively and at the right points in the fight. Namely the synergy between mana fiend and Hymn of Hope. Always pop fiend whenever you are hasted and follow up with Hymn. Hymn increases your intellect for a period, and since mana fiend returns a % of your mana, it results in larger net mana gain. I use this trick constantly and its a life saver on fights where you have lulls in action.
Just a mana saving tip. Remember: Choosing the right spell at the right time >>>>> gems/enchants. You can set up your toon perfect gear wise, but nobody can spam flash heal the whole time ya dig?
