We have known God's love for us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God and God abides in him, we read in a reading from the Mass1.
The fullness of God's mercy towards mankind is expressed in the sending of the Person of his only-begotten Son. Not only have we come to know that God loves us because this is the constant teaching of Jesus, but his presence among us is the ultimate proof of this love: he himself is the full revelation of God and of his love for mankind2. St. Augustine teaches that the source of all graces is the love that God has for us and that he has revealed to us not only in words, but also in deeds. The supreme act of this love took place when his only-begotten Son assumed mortal flesh and became man like us, except in sin3.
Today we must ask for new light in order to understand more deeply God's love for all men and women, for each one of us. We must beseech the Holy Spirit that, with his grace and our correspondence, each day we may be able to say personally and with greater depth: I have come to know the love that God has for me. With the help of grace, we will arrive at this wisdom - the one that really matters - by meditating many times on the Most Holy Humanity of Jesus: his life, his deeds, what he suffered to redeem us from the slavery in which we were enslaved and to raise us to a friendship with him that will last for eternity. The Heart of Jesus, a heart with human feelings, was the instrument united to the Divinity to express to us His unspeakable love; the Heart of Jesus is the heart of a divine Person, that is, of the Incarnate Word, and, "therefore, it represents and places before our eyes all the love that He had for us and has for us now. And here is the reason why the cult of the Sacred Heart is considered, in practice, as the most complete profession of the Christian faith. Truly, the religion of Jesus Christ is founded entirely on the Man-God Mediator; so that one cannot reach the Heart of God except by passing through the Heart of Christ, according to what He Himself affirmed: I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me (Jn 14:6) ".
There was not a single act of the soul of Christ or of His will that was not directed to our redemption, to obtain for us all the help so that we would never be separated from Him, or to return if we had gone astray. There was not a part of His body that did not suffer for our love. All kinds of pains, insults and reproaches He gladly accepted for our salvation. There was not a drop of his most precious Blood that was not shed for us.
God loves me. This is the most consoling truth of all and the one that should have the most practical resonance in my life. Who can understand the deep abyss of the goodness of Jesus manifested in the call we have received to share with him his very Life, his friendship...? A Life and a friendship that not even death will be able to break; on the contrary, it will make it stronger and more secure.
"God loves me... and the Apostle John writes: "Let us therefore love God, since God first loved us". -As if that were not enough, Jesus turns to each one of us, despite our undeniable miseries, to ask us as he did Peter: "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these?"....
"-It is time to answer: "Lord, You know everything, You know that I love You!", adding with humility: help me to love You more, increase my love for You!"
