On Friday, June 19th, the Catholic Church celebrates The Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The devotion to the Sacred Heart is one whereby we see Jesus Christ’s physical heart as the representation of his divine love for humanity; a beautiful visual indeed; and one we need especially now, as we all deal with the tragic death of George Floyd, and the attention it has drawn to social injustice and inequality. So this week, our prayer theme will be to pray to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, for those intentions we hold in the silence of our hearts.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Lord, you deserve all honor and praise, because your love is perfect and your heart sublime. My heart is filled to overflowing with gratitude for the many blessings and graces you have bestowed upon me and those whom I love. Forever undeserving, may I always be attentive and never take for granted the gifts of mercy and love that flow so freely and generously from your Sacred Heart. Heart of Jesus, I adore you. Thank you for hearing and answering my petitions.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
