\u201cToday you two received all the graces you\u2019ll ever need to get through anything in your marriage.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

These are the words a friend told me on my wedding day, and, despite the busyness and emotion of the day, I distinctly remember them. At the time, I know I didn\u2019t understand what she meant, and, had I understood, I doubt I would have believed them. I was a lapsed Catholic then, limping my way back to the Church, and not quite sure yet what to take as Truth. But I seem to have remembered those words, and stored them up, and pondered them somewhere deep in my heart.<\/span><\/p>\n

The words have come up many times in my marriage of twenty-two years, when my husband and I have come up against some difficulty that we couldn\u2019t imagine ever surmounting. Like when our young teenagers seemed to be drifting away from us. Or when we seemed to be drifting away from each other, and couldn\u2019t envision ever being able to find our way back.<\/span><\/p>\n

We did, though, thanks to prayer and hard, hard work, but mostly thanks to those graces that we received on our wedding day. We have called on them many times in twenty-two years, and they have not failed us yet.<\/span><\/p>\n

And this is just one of twelve beautiful promises of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, revealed to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque between 1673 and 1675:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI will give them all the graces necessary in their state of life.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

I apply this promise to my marriage confidently and constantly. But there\u2019s another one of the twelve promises that stands out to me, at least as a wife:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLukewarm souls shall become fervent.\u201d<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

This is a good promise for me to remember in my marriage; we\u2019ve certainly had our times of tepidity, whether it was because we were exhausted from parenting little ones, cooped up in quarantine, or just because we\u2019ve been together for twenty-five years.<\/span><\/p>\n

But God never leaves us lukewarm, neither in our faith, nor our vocation to marriage; He is always ready to fan the flames of our love for our spouse and rekindle our compassion and kindness and cheer. As we celebrate the Sacred Heart of Jesus this month, I\u2019m calling upon that promise in particular: that God will warm my heart when it becomes tepid, increase my thoughtfulness when I become thoughtless, and fan the flame to make me more fervent in my love.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
