The Heart of Jesus

"If the human heart represents an unfathomable mystery that only God knows, how much more sublime is the Heart of Jesus, in which the life of the Word itself beats. In it, as suggested by the beautiful Litanies of the Sacred Heart that echo the Scriptures, are found all the treasures of wisdom and science and all the fullness of divinity…How necessary for contemporary humanity is the message that flows from contemplation of the heart of Christ. Where, indeed, if not from that source, will it be able to attain the reserves of meekness and forgiveness necessary to heal the bitter conflicts that bloody it?"

Saint John Paul II

Your Destiny...Your Duty

(Image Source - Wikimedia Commons ) This is the Will of God – your sanctification.  To be a child of Mary means to be a saint.  That is your destiny.  That is your duty.  That is the one work of your life and your life's only work…there is only one sorrow: not to be a saint.  God has willed that you be a saint; has made it the whole purpose of your life, and the only meaning of all your living.  Rev. M. Raymond, O.C.S.O.
