OK- here are a few quotes and some scripture verses that explain our hearts right now:
"Christ has no body on earth but yours,
no hands but yours,
no feet but yours.
Yours are the eyes through which
Christ's compassion for the world is to look out;
yours are the feet with which He is to go about doing good;
and yours are the hands with which He is to bless us now."
-Saint Teresa of Avila
