THE FEAST OF THE SACRED HEART–W (I) – St. Juliana Falconieri, Virgin–W (Comm.) – Sts. Gervase & Protase, Martyrs
Friday, June 19, 2020
The heart stands for love. The human heart of Jesus stands both for His human love and for the infinite love of His divine Person. His love was not just a shimmering, dreamy softness; it was wisely strong and true to its eternal purposes. Despite the anguish of Gethsemane, His love yielded His human life to crucifixion. His love had all the majesty and fullness of God, a height and a depth that make paltry the wisdom of men. Every mystery of His life, every miracle, sermon, and kindness, was a new revelation of divine love that enlightens and warms mankind.
