Month of the Sacred Heart: Heart of Jesus, Full of Goodness and Love

Never think that I shall cease to love you because of your miseries. Not so; My Heart loves you and will never forsake you.

I know well that you have nothing but misery and weakness, but I am as a purifying fire, I will wrap you round in the flame of My Heart and destroy you.

The more miseries I find in you, the more love you will find in Me.

Do you not know how little your wretchedness matters to Me? What I want is to be Master of your wretchedness.

Your littleness has given place to My Greatness… Your misery, and even your sins, to My Mercy… Your trust to My Love and Tenderness. Come! Lean upon My Heart and rest there.
