AFTER HOLY COMMUNION
Blessed Mechtilde von Hackeborn
The 13th Century
She (Mechtilde)
saw how the Lord opened the Wound of His amiable Heart and said: "Behold
the greatness of My Love. Wilt thou learn to know it, thou wilt find
it nowhere so clearly as in the words of the Gospel: 'As the Father hath
loved Me, so have I loved thee'". The Lord united His amiable Heart
with the soul's heart, and gave her all practices of contemplation, devotion,
and love, and made her rich in all good.
After Holy Communion
she longed for nothing else but the praises of God. Then the Lord
gave her His divine Heart in the form of a richly decorated golden ornament,
and said to her: "Through My divine Heart thou wilt always praise Me".
Cor Jesu, sapientiae abyssus,
miserere nobis.With Eternal Brotherly Love In Christ Richard †
