Reflection on the Spirit of the Sacred Heart June 29, 2012

Jesus le Christ   Lord Jesus Christ, your light shines within us. Let not my doubts and my darkness speak to me. Lord Jesus Christ, your light shines within us. Let my heart always welcome your love.  From the Sacred Heart Taize Prayer Group, Japan      (http://www.rscjinternational.org/en/home/projects-with-young-people/3047-japan-sacred-heart-taize-group.html)

For Reflection...     God calls us to transform the world, with great ambition but also deep humility. This transformation has to begin with ourselves: we must allow the risen Christ to change our hearts, and allow the Holy Spirit to lead us out into deep waters so we can head courageously into the future. Let us rejoice in the thirst God has placed in us! It gives renewed vitality to our whole lives. "Let whoever is thirsty come; let whoever desires it receive the water of life, free of charge."    Sumiko Debuchi, rscj Province of Japan (http://www.rscjinternational.org/en/home/projects-with-young-people/3047-japan-sacred-heart-taize-group.html)   Artwork by Ana Luengo  http://www.rscjinternational.org/en/spirituality/reflections/90-0704/397-preparing-for-retreat.html
