St. Thomas Aquinas says: “Praise be to Jesus.”

“I have come to give you deeper understanding of Divine Love. The Heart of Jesus is Love and Mercy. These two cannot exist in any heart apart from one another. As every virtue is perfect in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Divine Love and Divine Mercy are perfect in His Divine Heart. But there are other virtues and attributes which are also perfect in His Heart, and they are woven into Love and Mercy, making up the very fiber of Love and Mercy. Two of these are Justice and Truth. These depend on each other and on Love and Mercy for their very existence.”

“Love lays the foundation for Mercy. Mercy is interwoven with Justice and Truth. These are all threads that comprise the Sacred Heart. The more the soul surrenders to Divine Love, the more closely he imitates these attributes, and the more tightly woven is the fabric of his own heart.”

“Every attribute of the Sacred Heart interacts with all the other Holy and Divine attributes. This is the goal of personal holiness, for when one attribute or virtue is weak, the ‘thread' is pulled loose and the soul runs the risk of unraveling his entire tapestry of holiness.”
