Everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and the one who humbles himself will be exalted.
- Luke 14:11
Reflection: The true and only glory is the glory that will last forever. In order to attain it, we do not need to do spectacular deeds. We need merely hide ourselves from the eyes of others and even from ourselves.
- St. Theresa of the Child Jesus
Prayer: God of glory, impress on me the value of humility and as a means of attaining true glory. Help me to be humble myself in my own eyes as well as in the eyes of all.
