In daily life, Gertrude was a testimony of charity and benevolence, a very simple and generous woman, accustomed to frequent communion and constantly asking for the intercession of Saint Joseph. God granted her enormous graces, such as having had two very particular visions throughout her life, in which Jesus Christ, Our Lord, allowed her to rest her head on his chest and hear the beating of his divine heart. she.

The saint had many other particular revelations. On one occasion the apostle Saint John appeared to her, the beloved disciple, to whom Gertrude asked why, having been the first to lay his head on the Lord’s chest at the Last Supper, he had not written anything about the Heart of Jesus.

The evangelist responded that the revelation of the Sacred Heart of Jesus was reserved for later times, when the heart of the world had cooled to such an extent that it needed to be revived by divine love.
