Being Humble
While reading a writing by Saint Robert Bellarmine a few minutes ago (it's his feast day today), it occurred to me that one way or another, we will be humbled. Either we will humble ourselves and recognize the need we have for relying on God, or we will try to do it all ourselves and eventually realize how much we need Him.
One way or another, we will be humbled. It will be far less painful if we do it ourselves.
