Jesus not only loves us — He thirsts for us. Why does He say “I thirst”? What does it mean? It’s something so hard to explain in words. I thirst is something much deeper than Jesus just saying, “I love you”. Mother Teresa tells us how much love Jesus has for each of us — beyond all that we can imagine. In her words “Not only He loves you, even more, He longs for you. He misses you when you don’t come close. He thirsts for you. He loves you always, even when you don’t feel worthy”
This fourth and last part of this series talks about Jesus’s experience of us and our first step to begin to know who He wants to be for us, or who Jesus wants us to be for Him.

The Rich Man Who Didn’t Turn
St. Francis is the rich young man who didn’t turn away sad. God invited St. Francis, and his response was even more than his heart burning for the Lord — he was consumed. There was no going back. He became more like Jesus, but without being less like Francis. He became more like Francis; not losing himself in God, but finding himself in God.
