22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

“My child, conduct your affairs with humility.”  Humility is one of the most important and misunderstood virtues. Humility is NOT walking around with your head bowed down, or being quiet/submissive/weak, or downplaying things you’re good at.  Humility is acknowledging the truth; it’s living in reality.  It’s an interior attitude recognizing that everything we have comes from outside of us – ultimately from God.  Living out of this reality means that certain things need to be strongly fought for and proclaimed without worry of what others think (Side 1), while other times we just need to take one on the chin (Side 2).  So if you’re feeling daring, ask for humility this week!
