My dear friends, in today’s feast, we celebrate that one Heart which has beat for us with divine love from all eternity and which will continue to do so - the Sacred Heart of Jesus.In the earlier days of the Church, especially during the Middle Ages, devotion was given more to the wound in Christ’s side, created by the centurion on guard at the crucifixion as we saw illustrated in today’s gospel. In more recent times, however, especially with the mystical blessings received by Saint Margaret Mary the focus shifted to the Heart of Jesus and the unfathomable love Almighty God has demonstrated for us therein.
