When you come to serve the Lord, prepare yourself for trials. Be sincere of heart and steadfast.
-Sir 2:2
Reflection:
The fundamental lesson of humility is that it neither wipes away the greatness of Christ nor reduces to nothingness our poor merit.
Humility is a moral attitude that does not destroy the values to which it is applied; it is a way to recognize and regain them.
-Pope Paul VI
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, You humbled Yourself in taking our flesh upon Yourself, and especially in dying upon the Cross. Teach me humility, so that my actions and words may always be filled with Your love.
