Devotion to the Sacred Heart: Twenty Seventh day

27-06-2024 - Thursday

Sacred Heart of Jesus, source of all consolation

God himself has proclaimed that it is difficult to find a loyal friend and one is lucky if he finds one. A loyal friend delights in your accomplishments, grieves with you in your grief, consoles you when you are crestfallen and strives for your prosperity and wellbeing. Holy Bible testifies that it is difficult to find such a friend. “Many say, “My loyal friend,” but who can find someone worthy of trust?” (Proverbs 20:6). Imagine that you found such a faithful friend. Your friendship could turn a rough path in minutes, for insignificant reasons or for slight oversights. It is difficult to conjoin frozen relations. Even if you find a friend, who is always beside you in both good and bad times, still this relation will end with his death. All worldly relations are transient and vanishes with time. Remember the verse “Cursed is the man who trusts in human beings.” (Jeremiah 17:5). If you love the Sacred Heart and consider Jesus as your best friend, then you will not be put to such tests. Whichever way you wrong the divine heart, a repentant sinner is always forgiven .Since He is all powerful and treasure house of all goodness, Jesus in His immense mercy will forgive all your trespasses and shower you with blessings. Jesus, who has proclaimed that He will be with us till the end of the world, will help you every moment of your life and love you like a loyal friend. He will be with you until the moment you abandon Him. Then, He will crave to win you back again and knock at your heart’s doorway incessantly. Therefore, my soul!

Embrace this adorable divine heart of Jesus, who is your loyal friend, comforter, and your everything. For, He is the one who ceaselessly helps you, consoles you in your grief, and fortify you against all enemies both spiritual and physical. This Divine Heart will be your source of consolation in this life.

INVOCATION (JAPAM)

Jesus, full of grace! Most loyal friend among all friends! Seat of all goodness and peace! Sole comforter in this world of tears! Solace of those tangled in temptations! Father of all people! I adore You. I love You with my whole heart. O! My Lord! It is true that in the past I found love and comfort in worldly things and friends. O Divine Heart, filled with grace! Grant that I trust and love Your divine heart and find my solace and comfort in it.

Grant to Your Church, O Lord, assurance of freedom, protect our Supreme Pontiff and make haste that all may know the haven of truth, and have unity of faith, so that there may soon be one fold and one Shepherd! Lord, be merciful to the unfortunate sinners, console the souls in Purgatory and be merciful to me, your unworthy servant. O Immaculate Heart of Mary, O Mother of all blessings, I firmly believe that through your powerful intercession, all my prayers and petitions will be granted. Amen
