“Jesus said, “Beware of the scribes, who like to go around in
long robes and accept greetings in the marketplaces, seats of honor in synagogues, and places of
honor at banquets. The devour the houses of widows and, as a pretext, recite lengthy prayers.
They will receive a very severe condemnation.” Mark 12:38-40. Fulton Sheen said, “Humility is
dependence on God as pride is independence of Him. The humble soul is always the thankful
soul.” Let us pray, Father, forgive us for the time we are phony, show off, lacking the generosity
and genuineness that You expect of us both in life and in worship. May our composure be
modest and lowly always. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be blessed. Larry.
