Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, Friday, 16-06-2023

Deuteronomy 7:6-11 / 1 John 4:7-16 / Matthew 11:25-30

The mind is the seat of knowledge and hence the mind seeks to be filled and nourished by learning. 

The human mind also thinks logically and rationally, as well as sensibly.

And so the human mind embarks on the noble pursuits of science, medicine, engineering, law, business, etc.

All that is necessary for life.

But what we stay alive for, and keep alive for, is love, truth, beauty, goodness, poetry, dance, art, etc.

All that is what the heart yearns for, and in that, the heart finds its rest.

And all that the heart is yearning for, and finds its rest in, is found in Jesus.

As we celebrate the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, let us offer our hearts to Him.

Our hearts will not rest, until we are rested in Him, for Jesus is the fullness of love, truth, beauty, goodness.
