“If I love Jesus, I ought toJesus-Washing-Feet-300x212 resemble Him. If I love Jesus, I ought to love what He loves, what He prefers to all else: humility.”
                                                                             -St. Peter Julian Eymard

 

For Reflection:

How does Jesus show us that He prefers humility to all else? Does my desire for humility reflect my love of Jesus?

St John Vianney presents another helpful image:  “Humility is like a pair of scales; the lower one side falls, the higher rises the other.  Let us humble ourselves like the Blessed Virgin, and we shall be exalted.”
