"All for the Eucharist; nothing for me."
-St. Margaret Mary Alacoque
Today's Reflection
After experiencing the grace of seeing Our Lord and the vision of His Sacred Heart, St. Margaret Mary was inspired to give her life over more completely and entirely to the love and service to Our Lord. Ponder how you can follow her example in doing all for Jesus and nothing for yourself.

"O souls that I love, I [suffered] to teach you not to faint under your burdens. Never count them as useless, even if you are unable to reckon the result. Submit your judgment and leave the divine will free to do with you whatsoever it wills…remain in My peace. I am always with you even when you do not see Me. How many times Jesus told His disciples and the mothers: ‘Let the little children come to Me, for of such is the Kingdom of God.’”
-Sister Josefa Menendez

"O Sacred Heart of Jesus, living and life-giving fountain of eternal life, infinite treasury of the Divinity, and glowing furnace of love, Thou art my refuge and my sanctuary. O adorable and glorious Saviour, consume my heart with that burning fire that ever inflames Thy Heart. Pour down on my soul those graces that flow from Thy love. Let my heart be so united with Thine, that our wills may be one, and mine may in all things be conformed to Thine. May Thy will be the rule of both my desires and my actions."

"Behold this Heart, which has so loved men that It has spared nothing, even to exhausting and consuming Itself, in order to testify Its love. In return, I receive from the greater part [of humanity] only ingratitude, by their irreverence and sacrilege, and by the coldness and contempt they have for Me in this Sacrament of Love. It is for this reason I ask thee that the first Friday after the octave of the Blessed Sacrament, be appropriated to a special feast to honor My Heart by receiving Communion on that day, and making reparation for the indignity that It [My Heart] has received. And I promise that My Heart shall dilate to pour out abundantly the influences of My Love on all who will render It this honor or will obtain My Heart being given this honor."
-Jesus to Sister Josefa Menendez
