St. John Eudes was a holy 17th-century priest who is best known for the work he did to spread devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
While on his deathbed, he dictated one final request, which was translated into English and published in a 20th-century biography, Their Hearts Be Praised. This final wish is a perfect summary of his life and the ultimate goal he constantly strove to attain.
The example of St. John Eudes should be an inspiration to all of us, reminding us that when we lie on our deathbed, we should raise our hearts to God and aim to leave this world with the words, "Jesus, Mary," on our lips.
