June: The Sacred Heart of Jesus
“Come to me, all you who labour and are burdened, and I will give you rest.” Matthew 11:28
As we enter the beautiful month of June, the Church invites us to draw close to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the heart that loves us with infinite mercy, compassion, and tenderness.
The image of the Sacred Heart reminds us that Christ’s love is not distant or abstract. His Heart burns with love for each one of us personally – in our joys, struggles, loneliness, grief, and hope. In a world often marked by division and uncertainty, devotion to the Sacred Heart calls us back to trust, peace, and the healing power of God’s love. Below is a prayer video of the Litany of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, a wonderful way to pray each day this June.
A few years ago Cardinal Thomas Collins wrote a pastoral letter on the Sacred Heart of Jesus called Heart Speaks to Heart. Here is a short excerpt on the Litany of the Sacred Heart:
Like the Rosary, the litany is a repetitive prayer, and the repetition of “Have
mercy on us” after each line is, in fact, like our regularly repeating heartbeat, very
calming: once we meditate on the references, it gives us insight into the love of
God for us in Jesus, and it gives us serenity through the heartbeat of its repetitive
pattern. In our frazzled world these days, we especially need both that insight and
that serenity.
