The Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ
Hosea 11:1, 3-4, 8c-9
Canticle 9
Ephesians 3:8-12, 14-19
John 19:31-37
In just a brief perusal of the headlines, we can quickly come to feel like integrity is in short supply. It’s hard to know who to trust. People we thought we knew well for decades may suddenly reveal an inner darkness. Narratives may change suddenly, inducing whiplash. Outright dishonesty and obfuscation may set us adrift, uncertain of our bearings. Where do we stand, when everything around us can feel mutable, negotiable?
Our feast today—the sacred heart of Jesus—reveals something fundamental about Jesus’s integrity, something true about the faithfulness and reliability of Jesus, of his, of God’s, love for us. And it is an invitation to us to let our own hearts be transformed, to find our own integrity in integrity of Jesus’s heart.
