Reflection
A Prayer for the Feast of the Sacred Heart
We give thanks for the blessing of being together
and to cherish the Sacred Heart.
To make warmth and quiet for the heart.
To make soups and broths for the heart.
To cook for the heart and read for the heart.
To curl up softly and nestle with the heart.
To sleep deeply and gently at one with the heart.
To dream with the heart.
To spend time with the heart.
A long, long time of peace with the heart.
We give thanks for the blessing of community
As we gather to cherish the Sacred Heart.
AMEN
