Do you wish to rise? Begin by descending. You plan a tower that will pierce the clouds? Lay first the foundation of humility. It was pride that changed angels into devils; it is humility that makes men as angels. St. Augustine

For Reflection: What opportunities has the Lord given me in the last week to lay the "foundation of humility" in my life? Did I see these opportunities as such when they were given me? Can I cooperate with grace to see them as such now?
