SACRED HEART DEVOTION DAY 18

Sacred Heart of Jesus as a model for salvation

Those who wish to love and serve God in the real Christian spirit and courage will have to face much contempt and indignities .The Holy Bible itself testifies that those who wish to follow Jesus will have to suffer many hardships. Those who live for God and in God, and those who have done so in the past, and those who will do so in future will be purified by trials, tribulations and temptations before they enter into eternal happiness in their heavenly abode .Holy Bible teaches us that those who strive against selfishness will only inherit heaven. There is no doubt that the virtue that helps you to endure trials and tribulations is patience. The more you grow in patience, the better you will flourish in God’s love and other virtues. Our creator and savior Jesus Himself is our model in practicing patience. The child Jesus grew up in the midst of tribulations. When King Herod orders to kill Jesus, they exile to Egypt. For thirty years He completely surrenders Himself to both God and man. He does not hate the Jews who torture and mock Him. He slips away from those who try to stone Him. He patiently teaches the apostles who had no knowledge about the mysteries of God. And, in the end He prays to the eternal Father without contempt for those who unlawfully sentenced Him and crucified Him.

Our lord Jesus who is the embodiment of peace and patience is a model for us, who live in rivalry and bitterness. Let us all keep in mind that if we do not follow Jesus who is a model to us, then it would be impossible for us to attain salvation.

 

INVOCATION

O Sacred Heart of Jesus, overflowing with love! I prostrate myself before You and adore You with my whole heart. I lay my soul in Your divine care. Jesus, the messenger of peace! Kindly look upon my soul, tarnished with sin and ablaze in fury. You who calmed the sea with your divine words, bless me to forgo all my vices and acquire your virtues of love and patience.

Grant to Your Church, O Lord, assurance of freedom, protect our Supreme Pontiff and make haste that all may know the haven of truth, and have unity of faith, so that there may soon be one fold and one Shepherd! Lord, be merciful to the unfortunate sinners, console the souls in Purgatory and be merciful to me, your unworthy servant. O Immaculate Heart of Mary, O Mother of all blessings, I firmly believe that through your powerful intercession, all my prayers and petitions will be granted. Amen

[ 3 Our Father, 3 Hail Mary, 3 Glory be..]
