THE STRONGEST LAMB OF JESUS
The month of June is over; since devotion to the Sacred Heart must not end, let us consider today a lament and a desire of Jesus, to take holy resolutions, which must accompany us throughout our lives.
Sacramental Jesus is in the Tabernacles and the Eucharistic Heart is not always and not treated by everyone as it should be.
We remember the loudest lament that Jesus addressed to Santa Margherita in the great apparition, when he showed her the Heart: Here is that Heart, which loved men so much ... to the point of consuming themselves to witness their love to them; and on the other hand, from most I receive only ingratitude, because of their irreverence and sacrileges, and the coldness and contempt that they have for me in this Sacrament of love! -
Therefore, the greatest complaint of Jesus is for the Eucharistic sacrileges and for the coldness and irreverence with which he is treated in the Tabernacles; his greatest desire is the Eucharistic reparation.
Santa Margherita says: One day, after Holy Communion, my Divine Bridegroom presented himself to me under the guise of Ecce Homo, loaded with the Cross, all covered with sores and bruises. His adorable Blood was pouring down from all sides and He said to me in a sad and sorrowful voice: Will there be no one who has mercy on me, no one who wants to feel sorry for me and take part in my pain in the pitiful state in which sinners put me? -
Another day, when a person had hurt Communion, Jesus showed himself to Saint Margaret as tied and trampled under the feet of that sacrilegious soul and in a sad voice he said to her: Look how sinners treat me! -
And once again, while he was received sacrilegiously, he showed himself to the Saint, saying to her: Look how the soul that received me treats me; it renewed all the pains of my Passion! Then Margaret, throwing herself at Jesus' feet, said: My Lord and my God, if my life can be useful to repair these injuries, here I am like a slave; do whatever you like with me! - The Lord immediately invited her to make an honorable fine to repair many Eucharistic sacrileges.
After what has been said, take an important resolution from all the devotees of the Sacred Heart, to remember if possible every day: Offer the Masses that are heard, on holidays and on weekdays, and always offer Holy Communion with the intention to repair the Eucharistic sacrileges, especially of the day, the coldness and irreverence that is done to the Blessed Sacrament; other intentions can also be put, but the main one is the Eucharistic reparation. In this way the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus is consoled.
The other resolution, which must never be forgotten and which is like the fruit of the month of the Sacred Heart, is as follows: Having a great faith in the Sacramented Jesus, honoring his Eucharistic Heart and knowing how to find comfort in pain at the foot of the Tabernacle, strength in temptations, the source of graces. The fact, which will now be narrated, is to the devotees of the Sacred Heart of great teaching.
EXAMPLE
Prayer of a mother rents
A wonderful conversion is reported in the book "Treasure of history on the Sacred Heart".
In New York, a young man in his twenties had been arrested for libertinism. After two years he was released from prison; but on the same day he was released, he fought and was mortally wounded. The cops took him home.
The young delinquent's mother was very religious, devoted to the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus; her husband, a bad man, a teacher of wickedness to his son, was his daily cross. Everything endured the unhappy woman supported by faith.
When he targeted the wounded son, knowing that he was close to death, he did not hesitate to take an interest in his soul.
- My poor son, you are very ill; death is near you; you must present yourself to God; it's time to think about your soul! -
In response, the young man addressed her with a litany of injuries and curses and looked for some object at hand to throw it at him.
Who could have converted this sinner? Only God, with a miracle! God put a beautiful inspiration in mind for the woman, which was immediately implemented.
The mother took an image of the Sacred Heart and tied it to the foot of the bed, where her son lay; then he ran to the Church, at the foot of the Blessed Sacrament and the Blessed Virgin, and was able to listen to Mass. With a bitter heart he could only formulate this prayer: Lord, you who have said to the good thief "Today you will be with me in Paradise! », Remember my son in your kingdom and do not let him perish forever! -
He never tired of repeating this prayer and only this.
The Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, who was moved by the tears of the widow of Naim, was also moved by the prayers of this mother, who turned to him for help and comfort, and worked a prodigy. While she was still in Church, Jesus appeared to the dying son in the form of the Sacred Heart, and said to him: Today you will be with me in Paradise! -
The young man was moved, recognized his sad state, suffered pain from his sins; in a moment it became another ..
When the mother came home and saw her serene, smiling son, she knew that the Sacred Heart had appeared to him and had said the words, one day she said to the good thief from the Cross «Today you will be with me in Paradise! ... », full of joy she said: My son, do you want a Priest now? - Yes mom, and immediately! -
The priest came and the young man confessed. The minister of God, having finished the confession, broke down in tears and said to his mother: I have never heard such a confession; your son seemed ecstatic to me! -
Shortly thereafter, her husband came home, who, having heard the narration of the appearance of the Sacred Heart, immediately changed his mentality. The son said to him: My Father, you too pray to the Sacred Heart and He will save you! -
The young man died on the same day, after communicating. He converted his father and always lived as a good Christian.
Confident prayer at the foot of the Tabernacle is the precious key to penetrate the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus.
