It is celebrated the first Friday after the feast of Corpus Christi in June. God became human. He became one of us, with a heart and a desire to be loved. Jesus is both human and divine. His entire human life was a visible expression of his divine love. He longed to reveal God’s love to humanity and to enkindle within them the fire of divine love and thus lead them to a union of love with God. The heart of Jesus is a sign of the immeasurable love of God for each of us. +++++ Human hearts hunger for unconditional love - everything and everyone else will eventually leave them unsatisfied. Living a “spirituality of the heart” means learning to live each day with trust in God's love. We have come to recognize and believe the love God has for us. (1 Jn: 4) God's love is already present and will never change. God's love is unconditional; we are loved because God chose to love us. St. Paul tells us that God loved us when we were still sinners. God's love is faithful; we can turn away from God but God cannot turn away from us because God's nature is faithful. It is not enough to recognize God's love. There is also a need to accept his love. Francis Thompson wrote; “I fear, having God, I will have naught besides.” People usually hesitate to accept God's love and his offer of intimacy. There is an innate fear of getting too close to God. People fear that if they get too close to God, they will have to give up too much that they enjoy in life. Instinctively, people know that God's love is demanding and will become the primary relationship of their lives. This fear of getting too close to God can block intimacy, can block an experience of God's compassionate love and stop people from letting go of whatever is blocking their spiritual growth.
