August 3, 2018 - First Friday.
The 12 Promises of the Sacred Heart of Jesus: Jesus promised 12 special favors to all those who will honor His Sacred Heart especially on the First Friday of every month. In the 8th month of the year 2018, we look at Promise #8.
#8. "Fervent souls shall speedily rise to great perfection."
Who are fervent souls?
Are there hierarchy or grades of reward in Heaven? How would you feel to realize that although you made it to Heaven, you have not realized your fullest potential?
There are hierarchy of angels and choir. Therefore there must be hierarchy of saints. Some of the ministries or celebrations in Heaven are likely to be: Choir and Intercessions. Leading the ministries of Intercessions is Jesus our Eternal High Priest and His Mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Heaven.
Saints who will have pride of place in these two Heavenly Ministries are saints who have gone extra mile while on earth to please the Lamb and had washed their robes in the Blood of the Lamb. (Revelation 22: 14).
So my friends, being fervent is good but why not aim for perfection.
Honor the Sacred Heart of Jesus this Friday by attending Holy Mass.
