We, Christians, are the true Israel which springs from Christ, for we are carved out of His Heart, as from a Rock! — St. Justin Martyr
Joel 2: 13 Tear your hearts and not your clothes, and come back to Yahweh your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, rich in faithful love, and he relents about inflicting disaster. We should tear our heart, the deep sighs and grievances would come from it. Whatever our wrong doings which withdraw us from God, should remove from our heart. Remove the pride, jealousy, malice, anger, and all other bad habits which makes hearts unclean. When we do things against the will of God, He is not taking any vengeance on us, but His compassion and love reduce his anger on us. He relents His anger and remove the destruction of the disaster from the humanity.
Lord, make my heart humble and holy. Tear my stone heart and melt it with your Precious Blood.!
