Title: The Twelve Promises of the Sacred Heart Post by: Shin on June 01, 2011, 04:04:07 AM The Twelve Promises of the Sacred Heart (http://www.saintsworks.net/Pamphlet%20-%20The%20Twelve%20Promises%20of%20the%20Sacred%20Heart.htm) As given to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, for those who devote themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. (http://www.saintsworks.net/Sacred%20Heart.jpg) 1. I will give them all the graces necessary for their state of life. 2. I will establish peace in their families. 3. I will console them in all their difficulties. 4. They shall find in My Heart an assured refuge during life and especially at the hour of death. 5. I will pour out abundant benedictions on all their undertakings. 6. Sinners shall find in My Heart an infinite ocean of mercy. 7. Tepid souls shall become fervent. 8. Fervent souls shall advance rapidly to great perfection. 9. I will bless the homes in which the image of My Sacred Heart shall be exposed and honored. 10. I will give to priests the power of touching the most hardened hearts. 11. Persons who propagate this devotion shall have their names inscribed in My Heart, and they shall never be effaced from It. 12. I promise thee in the excess of the mercy of My Heart, that Its all-powerful love will grant to all those who shall receive Communion on the First Friday of every month, for nine consecutive months, the grace of final repentance, and that they shall not die under My displeasure, nor without receiving their Sacraments, and that My Heart shall be their assured refuge at that last hour.

I place my trust in Thee. Title: Re: The Twelve Promises of the Sacred Heart Post by: Shin on June 15, 2013, 12:06:44 AM TO THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS
I NEED Thee, gracious Jesus, I need a friend like Thee, A friend to soothe and pity, A friend to care for me. I need Thee, Heart of Jesus, To feel each anxious care, To tell my every want, And all my sorrows share. Sweet Jesus, keep me near Thee, Close by Thee all the day; Permit me not, e'en tho I would, From Thy loved side to stray. Uphold me with Thy gentle Hand, My tottering footsteps guide; And though I fall a thousand times, I'll fear not, but confide. And Thou wilt teach me, wilt Thou not? Each duty to fulfil, And it will be my sole delight, To do Thy gracious will. And this request alone I ask, This recompense implore; By every thought, and word, and act, To love Thee more and more. PRAYER Open to me, Thy Sacred Heart, O Jesus; show me its charms and unite me with it forever; may my breath and every pulsation of my heart, which cease not during my sleep, be to Thee a testimony of my love, and say to Thee unceasingly: 'Yes, Lord, I love Thee.' Accept th elittle good I do; grant me grace to repair my evil ways, that I may praise in time, and bless Thee for all eternity. - from an old book Title: Re: The Twelve Promises of the Sacred Heart Post by: CyrilSebastian on June 07, 2024, 05:59:29 PM When people place the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus in a prominent place in their residences, they signify that Jesus is the King and the center and source of love for all. |
