No 93 What does the heart of Jesus exemplify? Compendium Series


COMPENDIUM SERIES

Jesus the Teacher.


No 93 What does the heart of Jesus exemplify?  (475 - 477)

WHAT DOES THE COMPENDIUM SAY?

Compendium states: 

Jesus knew us and loves us with the human heart.  His heart, pierced for our salvation, is the symbol of that infinite life which we which he loves and the Father and each one of our hearts.

PERSONAL RESPONSE

What does this mean for me?

  • I can thank God constantly for His love for me and that He was pierced through for my salvation. 
  • I can be thankful that Jesus loves me with a human heart and that I am able to see Christ represented in sacred images especially the Sacred Heart.
  • When I look at sacred images, I should remember and venerate Christ in the sacred images.
  • I can be thankful too that I am able to give back to Jesus my love for him by the way I live.  I am able to honour his sacred heart by remembering the promises He made and attend mass every first Friday.  Check out my series on the Promises of Sacred Heart.

Questions to consider.


1. How would my explanation of this teaching make a difference to another person?
2. What benefit does it have to me knowing that Jesus loves me unconditionally?
3.  When I think of Jesus being pierced on the cross for my sins, how does that demonstrate God’s unconditional love for me?
