Pope Leo XIV's Prayer to the Sacred Heart of Jesus

(Friday June 27 is the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus)

Lord, I come to your tender heart today, to you who have words that set my heart ablaze, to you who pour out compassion on the little ones and the poor, on those who suffer, and on all human miseries.

I desire to know you more, to contemplate you in the Gospel, to be with you and learn from you and from the charity with which you allowed yourself to be touched by all forms of poverty.

You showed us the Father’s love by loving us without measure with your divine and human heart.

Grant all your children the grace of encountering you. Change, shape, and transform our plans, so that we seek only you in every circumstance: in prayer, in work, in encounters, and in our daily routine.

From this encounter, send us out on mission, a mission of compassion for the world in which you are the source from which all consolation flows.

Amen.

Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us! ❤️‍🔥
