Jesus, from all eternity
you were pleased to give yourself to us in love. And you planted within us a deep spiritual desire
that can only be satisfied by yourself.
We are made to love you;
you created us as your lovers.
Knowledge of you kindles such a fire in our souls
that we have no energy left for worldly desires.
My Jesus, how good it is to love you.
Let us be like your disciples on Mount Tabor,
seeing nothing else but you.
~St. John Marie Vianney, the Curé of Ars
