But over and above all these dimensions, the heart is also the place of spiritual encounter with God. There are many ways to open one's heart.

It is a deep well, and he who plumbs its depths can find spiritual wonders. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince God is constantly inviting each person to open his heart, he also wishes to heal those whose hearts have been bruised or injured by the hardships of life.
