The Promises of the Sacred Heart 978-0-89942-303-6
One of 101 titles in the St. Joseph Picture Book Series, this book by popular author Father Lovasik S.V.D., provides children with simple explanations of the promises of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Sacred Heart of Jesus is a symbol of Jesus's great love for all of us. It reminds us that His heart is full of kindness, mercy, and a special care for each person. Long ago, Jesus appeared to a saint named St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and shared twelve promises for those who honor His Sacred Heart. These promises are like gifts from Jesus to help us live with faith and feel His love in our lives.Some of these promises include peace in our hearts and homes, and comfort during difficult times. Jesus promised that if we trust in His Sacred Heart, He will give us strength when we feel weak and courage when we feel afraid. He also promised to bless the homes of those who honor Him, filling them with His love and protection.
One of the most special promises is that Jesus will be with us throughout our lives, especially at the times we need Him the most. He promised to help those who honor His Sacred Heart to grow in love and kindness, and He will always be ready to forgive us when we say we're sorry.
The promises of the Sacred Heart remind us that Jesus is always near, caring for us and wanting to bring us closer to Him. By praying to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and trusting in His love, we can grow in faith, feel His protection, and know that we're never alone. Among the features of this book are:
