The heart of Jesus will dilate our hearts by teaching us to love above all else the glory of God and the salvation of souls.... We rely far too much on our own strength when our helplessness is obvious, and because we do not depend enough on the heart of Jesus, on his love for us. The heart of Jesus is able and desires to give us the saintly powers we need, confidence and love, which inspire adoration, thanksgiving, and atonement, by placing the glory of God above all else.
