Theologians tell us that we adore at once Jesus\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 Heart of flesh, symbol of love, and the love symbolized by this Heart, inseparable from each other, one and indivisible.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

They tell us also that our worship is directed to the Person of the Word, made manifest by this Heart and its love. Thus, in the fullest sense, the Sacred Heart is the whole of Jesus, as He reveals Himself to us through the Incarnation.<\/p>\n

The liturgy considers the Heart of flesh at times, in the Litany for instance, with the invocations \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Heart of Jesus, formed by the Holy Ghost in the womb of the Virgin Mother\u00e2\u20ac\u009d and \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Heart of Jesus, pierced with a lance\u00e2\u20ac\u009d, and at other times its love, as in this invocation: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Heart of Jesus, burning furnace of charity, have mercy on us.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d But the invocation is always addressed to the Person Himself, to this divine Person who can take pity on us, console us, and heal our misery, because He is possessed of infinite majesty and infinite power. Always before us is the all-lovable and all-loving Person of Christ Jesus.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
