UNIMAGINABLE LOVE
"Thus you will be able to grasp fully, with all the holy ones, the breadth
and length and height and depth of Christ's love, and experience this love
which surpasses all knowledge, so that you may attain to the fullness of
God Himself." —Ephesians 3:18-19
God's word promises that by His grace we can grasp fully and personally
experience Christ's love. This is impossible for us, but nothing is
impossible with God (Mk 10:27). It's difficult to imagine experiencing the
fullness of Christ's perfect, infinite, and crucified love. Nonetheless,
He will do in our lives more than we can ever ask or imagine (Eph 3:20).
"Eye has not seen, ear has not heard, nor has it so much as dawned on man
what God has prepared for those who love Him" (1 Cor 2:9).
Jesus has given us an experience of His infinite love through the
prophetic vision of the Sacred Heart. No one ever thought of a picture in
which the heart was outside the body. This seems bizarre, even repulsive.
However, the Sacred Heart has communicated the tender, healing, personal
love of God for us. The vision of the Sacred Heart is one of the most
confirmed, powerful, and life-changing prophecies in the history of the
Church. Every day, look at a picture of the Sacred Heart and let the Lord
show His love for you in a way you've never imagined possible.
Prayer: Jesus, may my heart be overwhelmed by Your love for me (see Hos
11:8).
Promise: "It was I Who taught Ephraim to walk, Who took them in My arms; I
drew them with human cords, with bands of love; I fostered them like one
who raises an infant to his cheeks." —Hos 11:3-4
Praise: Joe was abandoned by some of those he loved and served most.
Through a picture of the Sacred Heart in Joe's bedroom, Jesus reassured
Joe of His never-ending love.
