Can you really comfort Jesus?
Many Christians misunderstand what Catholics mean when they speak of “consoling” or “comforting” the Heart of Jesus. The Church does not teach that Christ lacks happiness or depends upon us. As true God, He possesses perfect and eternal beatitude.
The devotion to the Sacred Heart invites us to answer Christ’s infinite love with love. Through prayer, worthy Holy Communion, Eucharistic devotion, sacrifice, obedience, faith, hope, charity, and acts of reparation, we become faithful companions of the Heart that was pierced for our salvation.
Drawing from Sacred Scripture and traditional Catholic teaching, this lesson explains the true meaning of loving reparation while avoiding common misunderstandings.
