I thirst for your love (Mother Mary of Jesus)

It is there in His Eucharist that He says to me:  

I thirst, thirst for your love, your sacrifices, your sufferings.  

I thirst for your happiness, 

for it was to save you that I came into the world, 

that I suffered and died on the Cross, 

and in order to console and strengthen you, 

I left you the Eucharist.  

So you have there all My life, all My tenderness.

--Mother Mary of Jesus, 

foundress of the Sisters of Marie Reparatrice
