I knew that, in time, St Margaret Mary would find her rightful place in our icon. And she has. Whilst reading her prayers and the litany in honour of St. Margaret Mary today (READ HERE) I find that she is called ‘a Seraph before the altar’ ! And thus she joins with her spiritual guide , St. Francis of Assisi, with the Seraph in the top left hand corner and now invites us – as the ‘violet in the Garden of St. Francis de Sales’ - to join with them in singing ‘Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God of Hosts.’
Our Lord's Heart is indeed ineffably beautiful and satisfying: it exhausts all reality and answers all the soul's needs. The very thought of it is almost more than the mind can compass. Teilhard de Chardin S.J.
