Quote
“May the Heart of Jesus Christ be our school! Let us make our abode there. Let us study its movements and attempt to conform ours to them. Yes, O Divine Jesus, I want to live there.” – St. Claude de la Colombiere
Reflection
St. Claude de la Colombiere was the spiritual guide of St. Margaret Mary Alacoque, so he was instrumental in promoting devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. He invites us to let the Heart of Christ be our school, to make it our dwelling place. We must reflect: are we willing to learn from His Heart? Are we willing to let Him be our guide? By the example of St. Claude, let us accept the humility necessary to learn from Christ, and be courageous enough to conform our hearts to His.
