Summary/Abstract: Cult of the Sacred Heart of Jesus is full of various spiritual expressions and forms of piety. Among them particularly worthy of underlining is act of offering to the Heart of Jesus, which in its essence and form touches the very core of that cult. Self-offering to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, both in its internal and external dimension, directs one towards the love of God and leads one towards the subornation to God’s will, the will of the Creator. The external expressions of these and at the same time the fruits of the act of offering are the deeds of love aimed at God and the neighbor, both in the personal and social dimension, or in other words our concern for building of the civilization of love.
