Blessed Miguel Pro

Bl Miguel Augustin Pro.jpgToday is the liturgical memorial of Blessed Miguel Pro, a fitting connection with today's  Solemnity of Christ the King, and the devotion to the Sacred Heart. The memorable line of Pro's is his last: Long live Christ the King. With that he was killed. Blessed Miguel Pro teaches us to serve Christ the King all that we do and remain close to the mercy of God. He wrote:

 

I believe, O Lord, but strengthen my faith... Heart of Jesus, I love Thee; but increase my love. Heart of Jesus, I trust in Thee; but give greater vigor to my confidence. Heart of Jesus, I give my heart to Thee; but so enclose it in Thee that it may never be separated from Thee. Heart of Jesus, I am all Thine; but take care of my promise so that I may be able to put it in practice even unto the complete sacrifice of my life.
