I've always had a devotion to the Infant weeping Heart of Jesus. Yesterday I read in St. Alphonsis Liguori (a saint I rarely read) a beautiful meditation on the Infant Jesus' suffering. He wrote:
"The tears of the Infant Jesus were very different than the tears of other new-born babes. These weep through pain, but Baby Jesus wept through compassion and love."
And I am sure that His Mother's Heart wept along with Him. How many times did His Father, St. Joseph, kiss those Baby tears in Eucharistic adoration and love? May we be like Mary and Joseph in our love for Baby Jesus.
May the suffering Infant Christ be our salvation.
