APPROVAL OF THE BADGE BY THE CHURCH
In 1870 a Roman lady, wishing to know the opinion of the Holy Father Pius IX about the Badge of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, presented him with one. Touched by the sight of this emblem of salvation”, the Pope approved the devotion forever and said: “This, Madam, this is an inspiration from Heaven. Yes, from Heaven.” After a short moment of silence, he added: “I am going to bless this Heart and want all badges made after this model to receive the same blessing, so that in the future, it will not be necessary for the blessing to be renewed by a priest. And I want Satan to be unable to cause any harm to those who wear this Badge, symbol of the adorable Heart of Jesus.”Blessed Pope Pius IX granted an indulgence to all the faithful who wear this pious emblem and pray daily one Our Father, one Hail Mary, and one Glory Be.
The Badge is a reminder of reparation by which we accept with love and faith our share in the sufferings of Christ. Thus we cooperate more closely with Christ in the vital work of the redemption of mankind by accepting the obligations of God’s commandments, by our fidelity to the daily tasks of our state in life, by the patient acceptance of the trials, disappointments, and crosses thrust upon us each day.Regarding devotion to His Sacred Heart, Our Lord revealed to St. Margaret Mary:“Those who propagate this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart never to be blotted out.”
