Self-Sacrifice:

All I want, all I feel, all I experience…
Comes from you.
Only you.
You give me Life, Hope, Faith, Inspiration, Love…
Life to live to its fullest, in order to more fully serve you.

The wound of the most Sacred Heart of Jesus, now that He has completed His mortal life, remains through the course of the ages a striking image of that spontaneous charity by which God gave His only begotten Son for the redemption of men and by which Christ expressed such passionate love for us that He offered Himself as a bleeding victim on Calvary for our sake.

- Pope Pius XII (On the Sacred Heart of Jesus: Hauerietis Aquas, May 15, 1956)
