Episode Synopsis
Heart Speaks to Heart: The Love of Christ in the Eucharist
Today’s Homily centers on St. Paul’s teaching that to truly know God’s love, . . .
. . . one must be rooted and grounded in it . . . not merely observing from a distance but living within it. The Homily then turns to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, whose mystical experiences of Christ’s Sacred Heart revealed the depth of His love and sorrow at being loved so little in return.
Through her, Jesus emphasized that devotion to His Heart is inseparable from devotion to His Eucharistic Presence. He lamented the neglect and indifference shown toward the Blessed Sacrament, even by those consecrated to Him, and called for reparation through time spent with Him in prayer and adoration.
Heart Speaking to Heart
From her quiet convent, this message gave rise to practices such as the First Friday devotion, Holy Hours of Reparation, and the simple yet profound habit of “visiting the Lord” in the tabernacle. The reflection concludes that true devotion to the Sacred Heart is not symbolic or sentimental, but an active, personal engagement . . . heart speaking to heart . . . in which Christ’s love calls to the depths of our own hearts.
