The Spirit of St. Gertrude: or the Love of God for His Creatures (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781502915931)

IT has been well said, that "the most ancient special devotion of Christians is that of the Sacred Heart of Jesus;" for it is simply saying that Jesus has been loved by Christians from the beginning with a love proportioned to their sanctity. St. Augustine was the great promoter of this devotion in the early ages of the Church; St. Francis of Assisi may be said to have been its living exemplar in the ages of Faith; while the Revelations of St. Gertrude were a rich mine from whence souls drew treasures of love, and learned how the Heart of Love rewards the fidelity of His spouses. This is an extract from the Revelations of Saint Gertrude together with the Little Office of Saint Gertrude.
