Description
Excerpt from Life of Blessed Margaret Mary Alacoque: Religious of the Visitation at Paray-Le-Monial; 1647-1690
Of this great Servant Of God, as well as by all who have made the worship Of the Sacred Heart Of Jesus one Of their chief devotions. They will find in the following pages a wonderful revelation Of one Of God''s ways Of leading souls to knowledge and love they will learn what are the dispositions that prepare for and merit the grace of Union with God; and they will realise more and more perfectly the extent Of God''s love for them, and by what means they can return love for love. It adds greatly to the interest that Blessed Margaret Mary is made to tell much of the story Of her life in her own words, and we owe a debt Of gratitude to the Superiors who commanded her to put down in writing an account Of the many spiritual favours she received, and the nature Of the communications that passed between Our Divine Lord and herself. This she did with a humility and an Obedience that are altogether convincing. We feel that she has hidden nothing from us from the day on which the work of divine preparation for her great apostolate was begun, and on through her years Of trials and disappointments to the day of success, when she could pass from earth to heaven, knowing that her life''s work was accomplished and her mission fulfilled.
It is with a desire to further the work of Blessed Margaret Mary, and increase devotion to the Sacred Heart Of Jesus, that this Life has been written - a desire which from our heart we hope and pray may be fulfilled.
