Yesterday was the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and today the Immaculate Heart of Mary (June 7, June 8 ). Let these paintings, stained glass and icons be portals straight to the heart of God, to His profound love for each one of us individually.
‘In a word, this Divine Heart is an abyss of all good,
into which the poor must plunge their necessities.
It is an abyss of joy, into which we must cast all our sorrows.
It is an abyss of humiliation for our pride,
an abyss of mercy for the miserable,
and an abyss of love into which we must cast all our troubles.’
