June is the Month of the Sacred Heart, in recognition of Jesus’ apparitions starting in 1673 to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque (1647-1690), a member of the Visitation Sisters, through whom He asked for devotion to His Sacred Heart.
On June 6, a First Friday, we celebrate the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
Mystical experience
In that first apparition, Jesus enveloped St. Margaret Mary in a mystical experience of His love. She reported that Jesus allowed her “to recline for a long time on His divine breast, where He disclosed to me the marvels of His love and the unutterable secrets of His Sacred Heart.”
In His second apparition to her, a First Friday in 1674, Jesus showed St. Margaret His Heart, “more dazzling than the sun and transparent as crystal.” The Cross stood above it, and a crown of thorns encircled it, signifying the wounds it had endured as a result of our sins.
Christ told St. Margaret that He wanted to reveal His wounded Heart because He could not abide watching as countless people turned away from Him. He wanted all to experience His love, mercy, and grace, and to attain salvation.
Jesus’ request came at a time when many people had embraced the heretical teaching of Jansenism, which instilled a radical pessimism that implied that most people would be damned and only a few would be saved (by means of their rigorous observance of rules). It has been said that Jansenism — which puts too much emphasis on God’s Divine Justice, teaching that one has to be perfect to come to Jesus — breaks the Lord’s Heart.
