St. John of the Cross exclaims: “Where there is no love, put love and you will draw out love.” This is a simple way to understand the Sacred Heart. God looked upon the world and found it forsaken, without true and authentic love. Thus, Divine Charity, the Holy Ghost came down and formed the Sacred Heart in the womb of the Blessed Virgin. Yet this statement applies to many other things: Where there is no [anger, suspicion, immodesty, irreverence, etc.], put it in - and you will draw it out! Too often we act like the proverbial Trojan horse, claiming to bring friendship and loyalty while our belly is filled with one of these evils and lets loose destruction upon those around us. Honestly examining yourself, ask 'how often do I take the Sacred Heart as my starting point to proceed to put love where I find no love?' St. John Bosco serves as a powerful example.
