Criticism vs. Humility

February 27

“Criticism of others is thus an oblique form of self-commendation. We think we make the picture hang straight on our wall by telling our neighbors that all his pictures are crooked.”

-Venerable Fulton Sheen

Today’s Reflection:

How easily we criticize others! It’s so simple to tell other people what they have done wrong or what is wrong with them; it’s so challenging to bite our tongue, and instead, say a prayer for that person!

Today, spend some time asking our Lord for an increase in the virtue of humility this weekend in order to silence yourself and kindly reflect on your own self rather than shouting out criticism at others.
