Only by being humble in my own eyes – can I see my true place in this Your world – thank You for this gift!
There is a most profound reality to step seven of humility. Sr. Joan summarizes it beautifully.
Aware of our own meager virtues, conscious of our own massive failures, despite all our great efforts, all our fine desires, we have in this degree of humility, this acceptance of our ourselves, the chance to understand the failure of others. We have here the opportunity to be kind.
If we have but one prayer every day, let it be to be kind, gentle, loving. In this way, we can be his hands in this world.
Awake – it is your time!
