One Last Appeal...

This is one last appeal for one person in particular. I don't need to mention names, but he knows who he is.

Today is the Feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. He lavishes upon us Love; a Love so pure it is completely sacrificial and all-consuming. Anyone who has experienced this selfless Love will know that all other love stems from this infinite well. God may at first seem distant and 'unknowable'; but a devotion to His Sacred Heart makes us realise that God became Man to show us His Heart, burning with Love for us. It is through the Son that we can see the face of the Father. Without this source of Love we become self-centred and lost in our own desires.

Jesus has left us with a sure way of experiencing this Love. The Sacraments. As Catholics, we are invited to share in His healing kindness in the Confessional. The Priest listens and absolves with the authority of Christ Himself. It is Jesus who acts in a supernatural way to wash us clean of guilt and bitterness. Our humility is rewarded with endless compassion and strength. All we have to do is go.

Once cleansed from our sin, we are fully prepared to receive the most wonderful of Sacraments: Communion with Him in the Blessed Sacrament, the Mass, the sharing of His Body and Blood. When we orientate ourselves towards God, He fills us with all heavenly blessings. All we need do is ask. God will do the rest. Nothing is beyond Him, everything will be healed.

So now I come down to the nitty-gritty; Where and How:

I really pray that this person can do the right thing and avail to these special Sacraments. What hope is there if we trust only in ourselves?
