Gospel: Luke 14:1, 7-11
The one who humbles himself will be raised up
Why is humility so important to God? Humility allows us to fully submit to God. It gives us the desire to be kind, grateful, generous, compassionate - a virtuous person. A humble soul is a rich ground where the fruits of Spirit grow.
It is a grace that attracts more grace. And it frees us from Pride which is the most poisonous sin. Pride leads us to commit from one sin to another, and suffer it's dire consequences. Jesus is described as humble many times in the Bible. He is the perfect example of humility given by God for us to imitate.
Dear Jesus, grant unto us a humble heart like yours. Amen.
