Reflect
When asked which virtues are most important, St. Bernard of Clairvaux once said “Humility, humility and humility.” In order to learn anything, we must first accept our limitations. How can we be better Christians if we do not approach God with a humble heart?
Pray
Lord,
from glory you came down
to greet us.
While on earth
you made a home
with the poor,
you lived among the diseased
and dispossessed.
No one was beneath
your benevolence.
Grant me
the gift of humility,
that I may share
in your glory.
Amen.
Act
Is there someone in your life whom you admire and wish to emulate? Consider asking them for help that you may learn from the gifts God has given them.
