Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. The life of St Gertrude which is here given to the public is proof, were proof needed, of this commonplace of spiritual writers. That a nun vowed to the humility of the cloistered life should have been chosen by our Lord as the instrument whereby He would reveal to the world the mystery, till then hidden, of the love of His Sacred Heart for men, is but one of many such mysterious events of which the lives of so many of the Saints are full.

But of specific devotion to our Lord's Divine Heart, as the seat and symbol of His love and compassion, there are not many traces before the days of St Gertrude. One, St Paulinus of Nola, may be taken as a witness from early days. In a letter to Sulpicius Severus, t he writes as follows: "Everyone humble of heart proceeds from the very Heart of Christ.
