A compassionate Heart
Heart of Jesus, here we are,
before You, who are the very essence of compassion.
We feel the urgency to learn from You, from your merciful Heart.
We accept your invitation
to be a Church to all and for all.
A Church in which a word gives us courage,
a hug makes us feel understood,
a caress makes us feel loved,
a prayer makes us feel stronger.
All these are manifestations of your closeness
through the comfort offered to our brothers and sisters.
Spirit of Love,
free us from the temptation to stay stuck
in the theory of mercy,
and help us understand that theory
is truly overcome when mercy turns into
a life of daily participation and collaboration.
In the month of your compassionate Heart,
we renew our desire to be
builders of a synodal Church.
This is the time for compassion,
so that in your Church, everyone
feels the gaze of respect and attention
from those who, overcoming indifference,
have discovered what is fundamental in life.
Amen
