Beschreibung

"Your face, Lord, do I seek. " -Psalm 27:8. We live in a loud and angry age. The holy is mocked for sport, the faith is dismissed, and the reflex of even devout hearts is to answer outrage with outrage-to take our place in the bitter tantrums of our time. The Heart of the Holy Face. offers a stranger and far more powerful response. There is an ancient devotion, treasured by St. Thérèse of Lisieux and half-forgotten by many, that answers the mockery of the world not with argument but with love-love poured back into the very place where love of Jesus has been refused. This is not a devotion for calming an angry God. It asks nothing of you but to see the wounded face of Christ, and to console it. Written by a former Protestant pastor turned Catholic author, and written for believers of every stripe, the book moves from the longing that runs through all of Scripture-the ache to see the face of God-to the honest, unflinching case for the Veil of Veronica and the Shroud of Turin, and finally to the tantrums of our own loud age and the quieter one hidden in every human heart. Its aim is not to inform you. It is to change you. You cannot make the world love Him. You cannot even compel your own divided heart. But you can do the one thing this devotion asks: cross the room, and offer Him your love now, in the empty place, and keep the living flame of love burning there-low and steady-until those you love look up at last and see whose Face has longed for them all along. Show us Your Face, Lord, and we shall be saved. Come and see.
