“and Mary kept all these things in her heart” (Luke 2:19 and 2:51b).
This practice of meditating on the work of God in her life, even the moments and the words that she did not yet understand, allowed her heart to remain faithful, even in the greatest sufferings.
So, on this feast of the heart of Mary, how might we emulate her pondering prayer of the heart through our own joys and sufferings?
The first step is to seek times of contemplation and prayer, perhaps by taking a walk, or setting aside time and a space to reflect on the ways God has been present in your life, or praying with the Scriptures.
The second, and perhaps more difficult way, is to model her quiet fiat, her yes to God, and to allow this practice of reflecting on God’s work in our lives to call us to deeper trust in him.

"We are in this world not to die, but to give life. The holy Mother of God teaches us that the first step in giving life to those around us is to cherish it within ourselves. The Gospel tells us that Mary ‘kept all these things in her heart’. And goodness comes from the heart. How important it is to keep our hearts pure, to cultivate our interior life and to persevere in our prayer! How important it is to educate our hearts to care, to cherish the persons and things around us. Everything starts from this: from cherishing others, the world and creation. What good is it to know many persons and things if we fail to cherish them?" - Pope Francis

SOLEMNITY OF THE MOST SACRED HEART OF JESUS
Promise with all your heart
The devotion to the Sacred Heart, which dates back centuries, includes consecrating oneself to, and benefiting from, the promises of the Sacred Heart. In honor of today’s feast, consider committing to the following: Consecrate all your actions to glorify the Sacred Heart; consecrate all your weakness within the strength of the Sacred Heart; consecrate all your confidence in the faithfulness of the Sacred Heart. Do this and the peace of Christ, who is our peace, will be with you.
TODAY'S READINGS: Hosea 11:1, 3-4, 8c-9; Ephesians 3:8-12, 14-19; John 19:31-37. “For this reason I kneel before the Father . . . that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.” #takefiveforfaith
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, font of love and mercy, and source of every blessing,
Pour out your love upon my wounded and suffering heart.
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, burning with the fire of charity for every soul,
Purify my heart and draw me ever closer to your divine embrace.
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, wounded by my own sin, and familiar with all suffering,
Forgive me of my sins and restore me to life.
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, through which every heart finds solace and refuge,
Be my strength, my courage, my fortress, and my defender.
O Sacred Heart of Jesus, proof of the Father’s love and desire for me,
I place all my trust in you. Amen.
For this reason I kneel before the Father,
from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
that he may grant you in accord with the riches of his glory
to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner self,
and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith;
that you, rooted and grounded in love,
may have strength to comprehend with all the holy ones
what is the breadth and length and height and depth,
and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge,
so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:14 #dailyingodsword
