“Rather, when you are invited, go and take the lowest place, so that when the host comes to you he may say ‘My friend, move up to a higher position.’…For everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be exalted.” Luke 14:10-11.

St. Benedict said, “The first step of humility is unhesitating obedience which comes naturally to those who cherish Christ above all.” Let us pray, My Jesus, this is a lesson we must learn time and again. To see You in everyone, and so to perceive the astonishing beauty of each soul You have created. May we take our eyes off of ourselves, and truly see the other, being present, and offering what we can in all love. Amen. “Let your light shine!!” Be
blessed. Larry.
