Matthew 11 – Jesus says
“Learn from me; for I am gentle and humble of heart.”

Humility is “the readiness to abase oneself, to lower oneself and serve the brothers and sisters"

The motivation of True Humility is LOVE

“12 Then he said to the host who invited him, “When you hold a lunch or a dinner, do not invite your friends or your brothers or your relatives or your wealthy neighbors, in case they may invite you back and you have repayment. 13 Rather, when you hold a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind; 14 blessed indeed will you be because of their inability to repay you.”

When you give alms, do not blow a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites[b] do in the synagogues and in the streets to win the praise of others. Amen, I say to you, they have received their reward.

Humility in Marriage

Fr. Cantalamessa said “I believe that God invented humility for the salvation of marriages.” … “To fall in love with another person – when it is genuine love – is the most radical act of humility!”


Humility and the Revival of the Church

Humility “gives the power back to God!”
It’s a recognition of the TRUTH that without Him, we can do NOTHING!

Pentecost… who made that happen?
Simply the POWER OF GOD.
Sure, the disciples were open and ready… but God comes.
“Power descended from on high, and nothing on earth can stop it”
