Proof that we are His children
Jesus is our Good Shepherd Whose voice we know because It exists in our soul, directing us to Him in whispers. But we must choose to follow it and to remain in the fold by habits of virtue.
Of this we are witnesses
“The author of life you put to death, but God raised Him from the dead; of this we are witnesses.” (Acts 3:15)
Mary’s anguish
Some holy authors say that the blood and water which gushed forth from the side of Jesus was His Sacred Heart breaking as He looked upon His mother, helpless to console her anguish. The two hearts forever adjoined, for just a moment, experienced separation. And the whole earth quaked.
His Heart breaks for me
The Precious Blood which runs through Jesus’ Sacred Heart came first from the Immaculate Heart of Mary. He returned that Blood to her as she wept at the foot of His cross. Just as His heart broke for her sorrow, It breaks for yours too.
