• The least known among the virtues and also the most misunderstood is the virtue of humility. Yet, it is the very groundwork of Christianity.

Learn, He said, not from angels, not from men, not from books; but learn from My presence, light, and action within you, that I am meek and humble of heart, and you shall find rest to your souls.
