Most Sacred Heart of Jesus… have mercy on us.
I remember a truth learned again and again in Spiritual Direction:
we cannot think our way into God.
We must feel our way toward Him,
because God speaks to the heart—
the innermost place where spirit meets Spirit.
For whoever tries to think love
ends up grasping at smoke.
But whoever feels love
grows, expands, softens, becomes.
Scripture tells us plainly:
“God is love.”
And everyone who loves
is born of God
and knows God.
To live in love
is to live in Him.
And Jesus Himself rejoices in this:
“I give praise to You, Father…
for You have hidden these things from the wise
and revealed them to the little ones.”
Not the clever.
Not the calculating.
But the open.
The trusting.
The ones who lead with the heart.
So today,
stand before the Sacred Heart—
burning, wounded, poured out—
and let Him teach you again
that faith is not a puzzle to solve
but a love to receive.
Let His Heart shape your heart.
Let His tenderness become your strength.
Let His mercy become your way of seeing.
For when we feel His love,
we finally know Him—
and we finally become ourselves.
Prayer
Sacred Heart of Jesus…
draw me close to Your burning love.
Teach my spirit to feel You
deeper than I try to understand You.
Soften the tight places
where I still hold back.
Let Your mercy steady my
seeing and my choosing.
Hold my small heart
inside Your great wounded Heart.
Shape me, Lord…
so I love with the tenderness You give.
Amen
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus … have mercy on us
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus … have mercy on us
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus … have mercy on us
