St. Madeleine Sophie to Mother Duchesne:


August 1, 1806 ~ St. Madeleine Sophie wrote to Mother Duchesne: I open my heart to you, my very dear Philippine, but what I write is just for you. I have so great a desire that you should love our Jesus that I long to enkindle in your soul the confidence and love I myself should have for Him, in order that you may love Him for me. Even if Jesus offers Himself to you only on the Cross, you should press Him to your heart more eagerly than if He showed Himself to you in the radiance of Thabor.
