third day of the blessed teresa novena

hear Him say to you: "I thirst"

"in His agony, in His pain, in His loneliness He said very clearly, 'why have You forsaken Me?' He was so terribly lonely and forsaken and suffering on the Cross...at this most difficult time He proclaimed: 'I thirst'...and the people thought He was thirsty in an ordinary way and they gave Him vinegar straight-away; but it was not that He thirsted for- it was for our love, our affection, that intimate attachment to Him, and that sharing of His passion. and it is strange that He used such a word. He used 'I thirst' instead of 'give Me your love'...the thirst of Jesus on the Cross is not imagination. it was a word: 'I thirst'. let us hear Him saying it to me and saying it to you...it is really a gift of God."

"if you listen with your heart, you will hear, you will understand... until you know deep inside that Jesus thirsts for you, you can't begin to know who He wants to be for you. or who He wants you to be for Him."

"follow His footsteps in search of souls. carry Him and His light into the homes of the poor, especially to the souls most in need. spread the charity of His Heart wherever you go and so satiate His thirst for souls."

thought for the day

"just think! God is thirsting for you and me to come forward to satiate His thirst."

ask for the grace to understand Jesus' cry of thirst. recite the novena prayer to blessed teresa

  1. For sweet little Jedidiah today....
    Exodus 23:20-23
    "In those days, the Lord said 'See, I am sending you an angel before you, to guard you on the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. Be attentive to him and heed his voice."' And also, "To His angels, God has given commands about you, they they guard you in all your ways. Upon their hands, they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone."
    Don't forget that God already has an angel picked out for Jedidiah...whom is filled w/God's love, who is at his side, to light, to guard, to rule, to guide...the same as your other children, Chris and you! Remind your other children and yourself that this angel is their to guide them thru the good and the bad times, is their to comfort them thru the good and the bad times, is their to love them thru the good and the bad times! Whether this is a good or bad time is personal opinion but either way it is God's time and in it the angel He has chosen for all of you is by your side!!!
