“Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me." (Matthew 18: 3 - 5)
Jesus praises the humility of a little child. What is humility?
Just like love, humility is patient and kind. Humility is not jealous, conceited or proud. It does not keep a record of wrongs. In short, humility is love. 💟.
St Augustine says that Humility is the queen of virtues. He added that you can still get into Heaven by breaking every Commandment in the Book. But you can never get into Heaven without Humility.
Today is the Memorial of Our Guardian Angels.
"O God, who in your unfathomable Providence are pleased to send your holy Angels to guard us,
hear our supplication as we cry to you, that we may always be defended by their protection and rejoice eternally in their company.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever." (Collect - Feast of the Guardian Angels).
