DAY 3: Submit Your
Intentions Solemnity of the
Most Sacred Heart Holy Mass, June 24
Dear Friend,
If you have not had an opportunity to do so, please submit your personal
intentions to be included
in the Holy Mass on the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of
Jesus.
As we celebrate the great Solemnity
today, let us meditate on Cardinal Burke’s words, from an Operation
Storm Heaven Holy Mass homily.
“The heart of Jesus in fact
represents the whole of the mystery of faith, the whole of the pascal
mystery, the mystery of the redemptive incarnation, for it represents
that constant immeasurable outpouring of divine grace from the
glorious heart of Jesus assumed into heaven upon the Church and into
the souls of all the faithful. We know that Our Lord is always true
to His promise – for us, our salvation, our eternal salvation and we
see in the heart of Jesus, the glorious pierced heart of Jesus, the
sign of that fidelity of the Lord to His promises, the anchor of our
hope.”
Here are some suggestions for
honoring the Sacred Heart of Jesus throughout the year:
- Consider
receiving Holy Communion on nine consecutive First Fridays, in honor
of and in reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
- Carry
your cross and heavy burdens daily out of love for the Sacred Heart
and say with great affection: “Heart of Jesus, be my
salvation!”

O most Holy Heart of Jesus,
fountain of every blessing, I adore You, I love You, and with a lively
sorrow for my sins, I offer You this poor heart of mine. Make me
humble, patient, pure, and wholly obedient to Your will. Grant, good
Jesus, that I may live in You and for You. Protect me in the midst of
danger; comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body,
assistance in my temporal needs, (mention your personal intentions
here) Your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death.
Amen.
Thank you for joining me and our
prayer warriors throughout the world. Let us continue to Storm Heaven, invoking the Heart of Jesus, who is
rich in mercy and love, to have mercy on us and on the
whole world!
Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
