Supernatural Love

Feast Of The Sacred Heart 2016

Father Superior begins this sermon by differentiating between human love and Divine, Sacrificial Love.  Human love can, indeed, be sacrificial, such as the example Father gives of a man who lovingly cared for his wife who was in an iron-lung for 37 years.  But Divine Love, as channeled to us through Our Lord’s Sacred Heart, asks nothing except Love in return.  Indeed, we are told to ask for nothing in devotions to the Sacred Heart but to merely give Him our heart.  Unfortunately this Feast is too often ignored in these times.  But there is much reason for great hope for Our Lord told Sr.Margaret Mary Alacoque, “Fear nothing, I will reign in spite of My enemies and of those who endeavor to oppose Me.  This Sacred Heart will reign in spite of Satan and of all those whom he raises up to oppose it.”
