St. John Henry Newman recognised that his deepest encounter with himself and with the Lord came not from his reading or reflection but from his prayerful dialogue, heart to heart, with Christ, alive and present. Have you ever wondered about your heart? Where is it? What is it? Informed by Pope Francis’ Encyclical Letter DILEXIT NOS on the human and divine love of the Sacred Heart, we will be asking these and other questions about our heart. What we mean by the heart and how we return to our heart will form the basis of some of our reflections. Using our journal, we will also spend some time learning to prayerfully dialogue with Jesus in the way St. John Henry Newman did. Our mind can understand the words of Jesus but only our heart, united with the heart of Christ, is capable of setting our other powers and passions, and our entire person in a stance of reverence and loving obedience to the Lord. (Pope Francis)
